Not everyone has the space, money or the desire to have monster fish.Myself, lack the space in my 2 bedroom apt. I have a 55 (until I get my 150) with 2 3-4" Dempseys, 4 EBJD's, 1 Clown Pleco, i common Pleco and 2 Polka Dot Loaches. I also have a 75 with Mollies, Swordtails and Platys.
So are you saying that if you did have the space, money and desire you would have 'monster' fish ?53special;1487548; said:
It sounds as if you've got a pretty healthy interest in fish and keeping them if you have a 55 (soon to be a 150) and a 75 in a two bed apt.
I don't think clown loaches are monster fish but plenty of us around here are obsessed with them around here. I think the moral of the story is that the value of any fish is in the eye of the beholder. I came to MFK a year ago, because word was that you guys were the most knowledgable keepers on the net. So far the info I've received has made me a much better keep, and made the lives of my fish much better. Let's not terrorize the new guy because he likes tropical community tanks.
If I've come across in a bad way then let me apologize to the group. There is nothing wrong with community tanks at all. 'the value of any fish is in the eye of the beholder' I couldn't agree more.mtnkngxt;1488262; said:
I was merely asking if there was intent to keep 'monster' fish given the right circumstances ('monster' is highlighted like that as it was meant to be what ever your monster is).
I live in a 1 and halve up, 1 and a halve down and have the vast majority of my living space taken up with tanks it's what I do, I was pointing out that for that living arrangement there must be a lot of water in a small space, therefore a monster fish keeper in a small environment must keep mini monsters, in the nature of this thread.
IMO all are welcome as I've posted before if you keep small fish(as I have and do), watch and enjoy them, if you are lucky enough to have the space for a x thousand g tank for x fish great share and we'll all enjoy.
'Terrorize' is a bit harsh, after all I was only asking a question.
I need a garage
Yanbbrox,
when my wife finishes school and we get a house, I am going to build a tank. It will be at least 1,000 gallons. I joined this site to help me plan it. If I had the room, I would have bought a 280 gallon tank yesterday, but I don't want to risk it falling through the floor of my apt. and I have no place to store either. I was PISSED, how does this sound
I no longer have need for a fish tank 85"l x 33"h x 23"d with 4 door wooden stand, motors, filters, hood light. It came with my house and all was operating when I emptied it the other day. $250
