Anyone else keep fish? 

 

I have a 120 gallon community tank with a breeding pair of Neolamprologus Helianthus who just had their first set of fry 

congo tetras, giant danios, rainbow fish,Black and Koi anglefish, bumble bee catfish, Kuhuli Loaches a zig zag eel, and blue rams

and im planning on adding discus in the next two weeks once they get out of quarintine. lets see your setups!

I used to keep predator fish. Had a 180 gallon and 110 gallon 

Peacock bass, gar, african tiger fish, clown knife, and several others at different times. 

If I can find pics I'll post them 

predator tanks are badass ive been kicking around the idea of putting a 240 in the garage for big killer fish also thinking about some black calvus image.jpeg.f593fddf8cff2bd62f4398bfda3ba7bf.jpeg

Had to do some digging but I found some 10+ yr old pics. 

Top to bottom: Indonesian tiger datnoid, new Guinea tiger datnoid, 2 species of peacock bass, spotted gars, my favorite predator fish is the African tiger fish and his tank mate, a vampire fish

Had some Frontosas a while back before I started travelling for work. Were cool fish to take care of. Probably get another tank going again once I get settled down here in Oregon.  Into herpetology as well. Need me some reptiles in my life.

Currently in the process of setting up a 180 gallon and a 275 gallon tanks.  Had a 125 split a seam a month ago so currently upgrading majorly.  Will put up pics once it's all set up.

Glass and acrylic both have a chance of leaking just have to be on top of looking for the signs.  I'm currently setting up a 40x40x40 275 gallon cube for predator fish.  Current stock list stuck at a friend's is 4 9-14inch bichirs and a 20in clown knife.  Once the tank is up in debating more bichirs or a zebra pike cichlid again.  This weekend my 180 tall tank is going up which eventually will be a planted discus tank again.  Way to much work when I could be fishing.

I love bichirs! I was looking today and saw another batch of fry that still had the egg sac attached these fish are reproducing like crazy. Only thing is I have a few fish with ich so looks like the temp is going up to 87 tomorrow
