lol that's great. all the stuff you suggested is nice looking choices. i got a florida lognose gar coming sat. ive wanted a gar my whole life being my uncle had one when i was growing up and i thought it was the coolest fish ever. i want a stingray to but that will have to wait until i build a bigger tank. saving up for a 150 gallon acrylic. i have to order fish being im surrounded by pets marts with crappy selections and the closest mom and pop shops don't look any better. hoping for a good experience

We'll I'm from northern Ontario where the biggest pet store is pet value witch carries, goldfish, electric yellow cichlids, betta fish and oscars. The closest place I can get a stingray is 7 hours away. Life's hard going monster up here lol. Our weather is bellow freezing for about 7 months out of the year also, so shipping is always iffy lol

Just ordered 2 12" Florida gars for 48$ a piece from a good friend that recently started their own business. Will most likely get them in on Friday. :)
