Hey,
yea I will definitely get a big tank in 2016.
But as you all know destiny might play by it own rules.
Next to the 118 gal tank there should be a 151 gal tank.
But while bringing it upstairs it ( luckily) slipped out one of my mates hands so I had to place a foot underneath .
The glass did not broke but while turning it around we saw that the silicone was damaged heavily.
After messaging the guy who sold it to me (as "fully functionable") he just blocked me on ebay so I was just like :
This bas****!
It would not have been a big thing if I had not sold the old tank and placed the fish in one old 50 gal tank.
So I learned from this by always thinking of a backup plan before finally buying /building a new tank.
Well I´ve never build a tank but with the 151 gal tank I´ve got a nice option to learn building tanks.
If I am able to rebuild/repair it it will be used for Clarias batrachus in fall /winter when I have to get them out of the pond.
As a conclusion:
If I am not able to get the "final" big tank I´ll go with 200x50 or 200x60 untill I get the bigger one.
If I´ll go with albifrons how many of them should be kept in 150x50/200x50 and finally at least 200x80?
The European mentality is telling me it´s not appropriate to keep just a single specimen
