Well I moved my 14" silver from the 75g into the 120g. The move went very smooth. I had got a large koi net but didn't use it because I would have had to remove too much of the tops(didn't want him jumping out of tank). So I went with a 8" aquarium net, put him into a half full 10g sterilite container with lid. Then acclimated with a dip line.

The move went well but now he swims every inch of the glass as if he trying to get out, and seems to be really pi$$'d about the whole situation. Also he's not timid or skittish but still has yet to eat.

Oh, well I sure he's gonna take some time to get used to the new tank.

well if I were to have taken that bet...I'd be payin' up right now. He just downed 5 crickets and is lookin' for more. I usually feed a dozen or so at one time, but I only got 5 this time....oops!:headbang2

Must be an Aro thing, I just went up to 75 last night until I get the 150 going, within the month, and my Aro is all pissy this morning. I thought he'd be happy with it.
