Since I've probably been driving everyone crazy with threads on my 65 gallon aquarium, I decided that we should all talk about each others tanks. So post some pics, and lets get this convo rolling!

Btw my 65 gallon hasn't even arrived from the factory yet, so I can give pics.

Used to have a 10 gallon and 20 gallon tank when I was a kid. Both community. Except I had a 6 inch pleco in the 10 gallon who ate everything until it was just him

55 gal with pfs eheim 2217 and ac50
Bumble bee oscar and asian bumble bee catfish.

This Friday my 150 should be delivered will have a couple of boulders one large Malaysian dw and a couple of medium mopani dw. The plan is to move all of my existing fish into the 150 and add a green phantom pleco. Will move the clown loach to the 55 and add a group with a smaller cichlid.
Cool thread interested to see pics of other tanks as I am going crazy trying to decide on a substrate

This is the only one I have now that's worth taking a picture of. Its a heavily planted 40b. Lots of corie cats, bristle nose, zebrafish, 2 angels, and a few Bolivian rams. Filter is a single eheim 2213. Im looking to expand on filtration but with all the plants I have had no issues.

:edit:
also have
an oscar tank
a cold water native
a cichlid community tank which im currently working on a 90g for them.

These are some beautiful tanks :)

I have a 56gal with 2 blood parrots and a fancy plec, some dithers too.

22gal long with 4 fancy goldfish. Overstocked, but well filtered and regularly changed so its fine for now. Will get pictures soon, I'm actually really enjoying the goldfish lol

I am total trash at taking pics of my aquarium. I'm also rather trash at keeping the glass clean. I am good at water quality though!!

So I have a 45 gallon bowfront. It's been hard trying to figure it all out, but I have:

~8 inch male Geophagus surinamensis
2 ~7 inch male Polypterus senegalus
~5 inch Synodontis sp (not a petricola, but about the same size)
~3 inch Mesonauta festivus

and now 4 random platys that the bichirs didn't decide to eat which are serving rather brilliantly as dither/targets for the Geophagus. Anyone else notice this? Bichirs just going ham for 48 hours on feeders then saying screw it to those they didn't catch?

I've finally hit a balance where things aren't being unmanageably mean to each other. Hooray!

Edit: holy crap that flagtail is amazing. Oh the fish I would have if I had money for a bigger tank (or the space for a 200 gallon, lol)

Pics of goldfish tank below. Filter is an aquael versamax fzn 2, 800lph. This filter has been terrific in my opinion, you can swap out the media as well to your liking. As such I have ceramic bio rings, and a mechanical sponge.
