You're the guy! Hi! I like the phrase (go big or go home)
you beat me buddy! My little tank is only 210 of your American gallons (current fill including filters)
but I got a few regular tanks too.

what do you keep in that box! I assume rays?

Nice clowns... they look to have some decent size.. 6 or 7 inches? I am a bit addicted to them too I have 11 in the 500 and another dozen or so growing out.

I'm like you, I love those loaches, they are my prized shoal! I've had some of them for almost 10 years now. That's all my time keeping fish.
Yeah the smallest is about 5" the largest is 8" I grew these from tiny little fishes! They take ages to grow!

JUST FINISHED YOUR THREAD! I love that tank. I neeeeeed it! Not for a few years but I'm getting something close to it!

Cheers, I'm not into abbreviations! (Obviously!)
Its nice to see proper tanks for fish, it doesn't happen very often!
so if that's a grow out tank, there must be more huh!

Planning something like a 1Kgal plywood tank for the near future

Thats the spirit!
Build or buy big tank, decide it's too small, buy or build big tank, decide it's too small.
eat, sleep, repeat!

(maybe I do belong! I actually feel normal among you bunch of fish keepers!)

Your fish house is impressive.

I came here to introduce myself as a new person and got distracted by your thread. If you don't belong here, I definitely don't. Good luck.

Cheers!
(It wasn't built to impress, it was born out of necessity! But I'm glad you like it!)
Thanks for looking! I'm always happy to know when it brings others joy.
Good luck for you and the oscar!
