I just moved my fish to a larger one (I think it's 1000 gallons). It's hard to take good pictures of fish tanks I find.

[ipodtouchy333]

I used to have one....ahhhh the memories but unfortunately it broke (don't ask)

Woah! What type of fish are those two, blue, shark-looking fish in your tank? I've never seen those before! Cool.

i Seriously doubt that is 1,000 gallons

i hope your kidding...

whenever i get a fishtank the fish always die right away.. maybe i shouldnt buy em from wal mart where there is atleast 3 dead fish in each tank...

[deathbyart]

One of these days I will build a nanocube.

[brad.c]

Guppies. Eight adults, five fry, at the time of the photo. Two weeks later, every fish was dead. But I was still hungry...

They're a rare breed of fish, but they're nice because they don't eat or poo. They just sit there and guard my treasure in that sunken ship there.


Also that Plecostomus is now dead :(

A 1,000 gallon tank would be approximately 11' x 4' x 3' in size.

That's pretty awesome if you have a tank that size.

Tank set up, still a way to go havn't even added water yet :p

Best way to use a Cube IMHO. No offense to those who like the Cube.

How did you kill a Pecostamous? I always had to sell mine back to the store because they got so big. (3-4 years)

I miss my Oscars. I loved feeding them feeder guppies/goldfish. I would have to cover the openings on the top so the fish would jump out or splash water out. Sick I know....:eek:

I also miss my African Cichlids. They lasted 5-6 years each.
Unfortunately I couldn't introduce any new/younger Cichlids because they'd be killed within 20 minutes.

sadly the one on the right died soon after I got them, he was so tiny he got stuck to the filter intake while I was out, and buy the time I got back it was too late :(

I've been keeping fish for at least 15 years, just started Saltwater a few years ago.

Love your tank and those royal grammas! i wish i still had my mini reef but i really dont have time to maintain it.
maybe put a six line wrasse in your tank or maybe a goby to swim in/out of the rocks to help clean it up a bit.

Nice job on yours. Where do you get the inverts?

Thanks, honestly I haven't been maintaing mine like I should. Those are old pics, it looks worse then that now. I really gotta get back on track. Maybe I'll do a water change and scrub the Live Rock today.

As for the Six Line, I think that might be pushing the bio-load a bit in a 10G, I could probably get away with a Glown Goby though, we'll see. Let me work on making it look nice again, before I add more fish :)

Here is my modest submission. :p

Very Nice! Is that a 125? Thats the size I want eventually.....

I really don't have many inverts, only a CLeaner Shrimp, and a few Snails. I got them from local stores (well about an hour away). I should add some more snails though.

I don't have the piranhas anymore, they died (more like i killed them by accident on a water change :() now i have african cichlids, and a red ear slider (different tanks of course) funny thing is I named my turtle Herman, only to find out later on that it's a girl, but she is still Herman to me. :D

Saltyzoo, that is an amazing aquarium that you have set up right there.

My fish swim around inside of what used to be my iMac. I had one fish that must not have been a Mac fan because it jumped out of the tank. I found him gasping on the side. I put it back in and I'm pretty sure he's a switcher now!

[juanster]

naw, i never did, just other big fish, like big ugly goldfish and stuff, but tahst nto too good for them so I'd only do it once i a while, i"d just feed them pellets, bloodworms, and feeder fish..

I like what you did with the plants. you never have to water them now :)

[juanster]

my fish had fry yesterday,, well i only see one,, and it seems pretty big, maybe theya te all teh othe rones alreayd wha are the chances of only one hatching right? here is a pic of it, it won t let me take him out of teh tank i just can t get it, so i just put a bunch of rocks around its hidding spot so that he can hide until i can get..

[Sethable]

^what kind of fish?
good idea on the rocks. as long as there are hiding places it can go when chased things will be fine. if not well.. thats nature.

they are african cichlids....

[contoursvt]

And the added benefit that they help filter the water and remove excess ammonia and stuff. Water quality is definitly better since doing this.
