I just got him in the tank and am now and I am putting in tank water in to the bag. Even though all my water tests came out good I am still really stressed because this is the fish I have always wanted so I don't want anything to go wrong. He is about 4" long an din a 60 for know and will go in to a 350 I am saving for by new years which will be his official home. I wonder if when I told my landlord I like fish and have a few tanks if he thought of this. This is also my first started thread I like it I may make more.

He is about 4" for $100. I set up 1 20g for snails and am in the process of cycling 3 more 20g for cherry shrimp, clams, and crawdads. So I am hopeing to not have to buy him live food in 6 months or so.

It's great to get your dream fish, huh? What floor do you live on? Will it support a tank that large?

Awesome fish. Good luck with it!

I live in a house and the one nice thing about home design in cali is the first floors are on concrete slabs so they can support some pretty big tanks.
