lol the same fish. but they are getting HUGE. My girlfriend has her own 55 gallon tank in the kitchen with pretty much the same fish as me, just smaller but soon they will be in my tank when they get too big. Her Florida gar is about 9"…mine is pushing 14". It was 9" about 3 months ago.

My silver arowana is around 17"…it was 6" 10 months ago! lol

Damn dude! I recently had a bad problem with ICH in the tank and lost a good amount of fish, but I still have my Tiger Oscar, Tinfoil Barb, and Pleco in the 55, and my Wolf in the 30. My fish dont seem to grow as fast as everyone elses for some reason, I get pissed lol

brand new tank with lid,heater,filter and light with the background already on the tank. Tank was used for about a month and I paid almost 200 for the kit brand new from petco a few months back…its just been sitting in my closet. If you want it, I will throw in some fake plants and will even deliver it to you for $50. Doesnt get any better then that!!

depends on how much you feed them and how big the tank is. ICH is a pain in the ass. usually what happens is you end up buying a fish from the pet store that has ich whether its showing it or not, and it fucks up your whole tank. %75 water changes need to be done every night, turn the temperature up to about 86\*, add ich cure.

also, The only thing I have changed in my tank sense the last video I posted was I got rid of all my fake plants, and have all real plants.

I like my dojo loach(s). They’re whitish-orange to bright ornage in color, snakelike looking. _Very_ active and east all sorts of shit. Sometime will eat out of my hand. Very easy to take care of and live well with the algae eaters. It’s said you can let the tank go way off the ph scale and they’ll still keep ticking.

Yeah ICH is a mofo. I did a 50% right off the rip, vacuumed the gravel good, added Ich gaurd and added aquarium salt as well as raising the temp. It cleared up quick, but took 2 of my Bala Sharks and the tiger barbs with it

the bigger the tank the longer the fish will live with no heater/air circulation during a black out.

when you get into 125+ gallon tank, you need to start looking at your buildings structural design and floor plans. You want to mount a tank that big perpendicular to the I beams.

yea, i thought about putting it in the basement. thats just solid concrete floor there. but the problem is that its usually cooler in there, cuz we dont use it as much. plus like, the tropical fish are SOOOOOOO touchy, its unreal. Ask Bobby, he’ll tell you. U remember that power outage we had for like 3 days? all my fish died then. i just cleaned my tank and put it in the garage.

yah concrete basements you can put any size tank.
