Omg.
He is actually stunning!
What will be his tank mates?

YF

 

[minxfishy]

He is in the 130g, so an Oscar, 2 severums (possibly only one before they are full grown), 1 ghost knife, birchir, 5 daemons, 1 FM, 1 nicaraguese.

The daemon may have to be moved, depends on his aggression levels when he reaches maturity, Im hoping that adding him when young will allow him to be settled with his tankmates, any problems later on and fish will be moved around.

Well he's in and immediately sifting thru the gravel looking for food

 

[youngfisher]

Thats a good sign then.
Wow, you have some beautiful fish mags!

YF

 

[minxfishy]

I do Im happy with the tank now, got all the fish I wanted, plus the other tank (53g) has all the other fish I wanted in it too.

Time to think about another tank and what to stock it with

Actually I already know what else I want, its just finding the tank for the right price for them

looking good, glad to see you found one, shame i gave mine away a few months ago, oh you put the nic in there combo brill, has are they doing?

 

[minxfishy]

So far, so good, the FM is a sh*t though, but nothing more than flaring and following too closely.

The Oscar is a daft as a brush, doesnt even notice anyone else, so far everyone behaving themselves, but time will tell.

 

[england]

oh yes the cichlid antisipation game,hehe iam not missing that part of it, miss my oscars mind

 

[minxfishy]

[bagu]

my green terror i bought is not even semi aggressive, i picked the most beat up one and the one that seemed the most peaceful in the GT tank
