well.. in my case.. i got my peacock bass at all the wrong sizes.. so i have 4 tanks with growing out peacock bass because if i put them together the big ones will eat the little ones.

my big guys are 15 -18" my medium guys are 8 - 10" my orinos are 5 - 6" and i have baby ocellaris that are 2+". 4 different tanks.

i know what ya mean...
but luckily,or unluckily,im only allowed to have one tank in the house.
so that means i either buy fish all around the same size or i dont buy at all.:irked:

boosten the 2 spots are in there , lousy shots tonight. Most of them are two or three spot orionos, the other half are wild monos. I'll try to keep you guys posted weekly. I do not see any rapps style orinos here, but definitely 2/ 3 spot orinos. I am one of the first people on this site to have them rarely, now they come in pretty frequently. Just ask RED1, I was the first to ever have two spotters.

Nice pick up for sure! Sweet Sp. when older in my opinion but I wouldn't even try more then 2 Tem's in a 240 long. And that's with a few 16'' fish and some ranging in length -. There is no way you could keep that many long term unless you have a big tank(s). I say 450g would really be pushing it.:confused: But sweet pick up none the less. I know you would do right by the cichla if need be. :D

So the other week, my tropical pond started leaking. I tried to fix it, then one day I came home from work and there was 4" of water in it, so I decided I needed to do something. I had another tank that I was working on buffing out the scratches in, so I decided that would have to wait and set it up again. I put 3 Red Bay Snook and 2 Gar in it and the rest of the fish moved into a regular Koi pond. Since I've purchased 2 Ocellaris. Unfortunately the tank looks really foggy because I didn't finish buffing out the scratches from the previous tenant. Check out my new Ocellaris and tell me what you think!

Definately hes always on the move, he gets any foods before anything else.

Hes certainly the top dog.

and of course it caused me many hours of moving fish and tank maintanence(weekly).



anyhow, what did i end up with here? i know P-bass, but what kind? hungry little bugger, taking off on trout worms. i have feeders in the QT tank, they wont be ready for a week or so.





enjoy the pics and sorry for the water spots and streaks(still trying to figure out the fish photography thing.
