Ya, I got my wife to let my buy a 125 by buying a giant gourami. She fell in love with our pacu that was in there for 4 years.
Sellers remorse :(

My IDS are great and loving the big tank. The 6' length was definitely a must for them. Plenty of room to turn around and about 5x their length. I know this is still a grow out for them and realistically the indoor pond is my next investment for them. Best part is they have not had a freak out since being in the new tank. I also bought a Python system for wc and that has helped immensely! Pouring buckets in would work them up so much!
I think you should consider a datnoid! lol They're great oddball fish!
How about some kind of spiny eel?
These will both get to be pretty large. Maybe another excuse to upgrade to the next size?

Last month I was able to find and buy a 150 gallon tank and stand on Craigslist for $400. To home my 2 LG ID Sharks in. Of course my husband wasn't happy with me spending that much but agreed non the less as long as I sold my 55 gallon to lessen the financial burden and I agreed. I put it on Craigslist for $200 and said I'll see what happens. Happy to me, I didn't receive any offers and I started to imagine all these great fish everyone keeps posting pics of on this forum! I had no idea such amazing fish existed! My husband unhappy, made me lower the price down to $150 and well today someone took me up and bought the tankI'm so sad now. I should have kept it although I really have no place to set up another tank. Now to convince my husband that I NEED to build the indoor pond in the basement for the IDs so I can use the 150 for all these cool fish I now want! I'm sure my husband would love to thank you all so much for showing me this new lifestyle I love so much!
My current new fascinations are the black ghost knifefish or the elephantnose fish! Not sure which one I love more since they can't live in the same tank so if I would have kept my old tank I would have had room for all of them.
I seem to like the oddball fish, feel free to share your pics with me or leave your species name so I can look them up! I seriously didn't know more fish could be kept then what Petco/Petsmart had...lol
Thanks-Amber

time to call a realtor for a new house
Haha thanks but my husband thinks this is gonna turn into a nightmare. He's so concerned with the liability of a tank/pond breaking in the house! If it was up to me I'd turn my whole basement into a tropical escape! Plants, pond and the whole nine yards...lol.
Women can love monster fish too

Amen to that! I'm a woman, too! My tank is bigger than my husband's!
Haha I love the enthusiasm of a newly addicted fish keeper. Keep browsing this site and you will never have enough/big enough tanks.
