greetings to everyone. i hope to learn more from and impart my modest knowledge to fellow MFK regulars. im currently keeping 3 species of bichirs, a clown knifefish, a giant gourami, large central and south american cichlids, large plecos and some others. im planning to acquire large growing south american catfish when living space allows. thanks. :)

Sick puppy!
Saying sick puppy, or wanting to bone one?
I'm confused, as usual.

he's the meanest fish in the tank he's in (i think its a he, anyway). he particularly hates cichlids. tried to put the adult mossambicas but he wont tolerate it. and once i had to rescue a Parachromis synspillum from a sure and horrible end. he ignores the bichirs and silver dollars but sometimes chases the Ctenopoma acutirostre. he is always hungry and always begging for food when he sees me and i cant resist. me mom luvs that bruiser too :hearts: .

yes and i dont know where to put him when he reaches a coupla feet. i dont think we have enough house space for a 250 gal. tank. all my other tanks are crowded as they are already. might have to sell my gourami someday. sob sob. :cry:
