5 silvers in a 1000 gallon?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i had 6 aro's in my tank

four 24" silvers, one 24" black, one 16" red tail gold and one 12" red tail gourami in a 240 gallon 8' x 2' x 2' with no fighting but a lot of splashing when it comes to feeding time.

at one time i had a green arowana in there too. until his gill started to curl, so i gave it away to someone who can deal with the surgery every other month.

now my tank is less crowded and my folks are no longer complaining about the water splashing all over the place.

your 1000 gallon should be perfect.

LOL... She's very cool. I lover her to death. She had a 540 saltwater setup on her own before I even met her, so she shares the fish passion with me.
 
thats always useful. 5 adult silvers would look awesome. awesum, would love to see some pics of that!

i have to lie. i order my stingrays when my girlfriend goes to her sister's, and try to make them arrive on days she's out... when she comes home and sees more stingrays, (and next week my black aro), i say my LFS cut me a huge deal... or that one had a baby... i feel like a drug addict hiding my habit... anyways, cant wait to see pics of this tank... you gonna throw anything else in it? and how about filtration.
 
Make it happen! Go for it! Should be more than enough space to keep the aggression down.
