I finally bought another tank, a 220 yesterday 6x2x30 for $350 with a stand, rocks, etc. Was $500 so a good deal.
I bought two filters, Jebo 839's for $90 each at 400GPH. I wanted a FX5 or FX6 but am trying to make this on a tight budget. I also got a 500 watt Jebo heater for $23.
So for now I have the 220 filled up, I need to clean it a couple times before I put the filters on next week when they arrive. All the garbage has settled on the rocks finally so it will be easy to clean.
I also have 6x Beamsworks LED's on their way here now for both tanks.
I went to Indianapolis today, hit up 5 Uncle Bill's and The Reef. I bought a RTM male for $60 at 8" which was $75, a 13" Royal Pleco for $69 at UB, 6" Polleni for $25 which was $71 at UB, and a Syn for $25 which was $69 at UB. I made out well today.
Only one I didn't go to was the Uncle Bill's in Fort Wayne, too far of a drive. There is another LFS is Southern Indianapolis but I forgot all about till I was halfway home.
As of right now all the fish are in the 240 and the Argentia is being a bully. If he doesn't cool off when I toss him in the 220 I may sell him, hate too but he is putting marks on most of my fish and he absolutely hates the Oscar and the Oscar doesn't mess with a soul. I should have bought it but I passed when I found the Royal Pleco, I found a 5 Spot Jewel Cichlid, first one I have ever seen, about 5".
Stocklist:
1x Royal Pleco
1x Adonis Pleco
1x Goldy Pleco
1x Polleni Male Big Spot
1x Polleni Female Small Spot
1x Polleni (Not sure on spot yet) may sell it to my buddy
1x Oscar
1x Red Tiger Motaguense Male
1x Argentia
1x Syspilum
3x Eclipse Cats
1x Green Texas - May trade it in towards Festae
1x Hartwegi (I think)
1x Clown Loach
1x Bocourti
I'm picking up:
1x Blackbelt
2x Haiti's (Breeding Pair) Will be in own tank to do their thing
2x Festae Male
1x Kelberi
I will be splitting these fish up between the tanks to see what fish work together, they all seem to work together except the Argentia.
I'm looking for a big Pearsi, Fire Eel, Regani, Godmanni, Beani, Gibbiceps, Zonatus, Fenestratus, female Festae, maybe True Parrot and a pike I will probably never find again, Xingu I. Ever since mine jumped out, I've never seen another.
I'm not doing any rays, I like the Eclipse Cats and will take a big Juruense if I find one.
Sucks not having a 500, I'm limited in my stock, for now. This list will change as it always does until I get compatible fish like I had in the 500.
