Great.....I have a soft-spot for natives, Im happy to hear someone is doing this....there is a great need and I wish you all the luck in the world

I appreciate the kind words.
Looks like the Green won't work in the 60-Gallon. The Tiger Oscar isn't very fond of him, which I guess I saw coming.
But I did take some pics of him in the tank, and the other two rescues. I also tried to get a pic of Bruce with a wide open mouth when he was being fed, but no luck, lol, too fast for me. But still got a few pics of him eating.

Picked up some more rescues last night.
First we have a mix of community fish. The family had someone give them the tank for free, but they like Saltwater fish, so that's where I came into play, lol. Now, I'm not very good with naming Tetras, but I think I should know what they are;
3x Neons
3x Glowlight Tetras
3x Black Neons
Also...
1x Bushynose Pleco
1x Albino Cory fish
1x Peppered Coryfish
6x Glowfish
Lately I've been after all of the more exotic stuff, so going back to Tetras and other common community fish just doesn't feel right, lol.
Now, enough with the little stuff, time for a fairly decent sized )v(onster! Yet another JD, but this time a bit larger. About 8", to be exact. At first the two JDs were not getting along, as shown in the pictures, but as time went on the started to calm down a bit. He was actually from the same person that has the Tiger Ocsar. I knew that I would be back there for him eventually. They wanted Tetras and stuff, and after putting a bunch in with the JD he soon ate them all. An 'a dur' moment for me, but what ever makes them feel good I guess, lol.
And finally, pics. Got two of the Common Pleco rescue also.

Bump.

 

[Hoyo12]

Hopefully getting another rescue today. Not really a )v(onster, other than in aggression.

Keep it going. Good thread.

 

[Hoyo12]

Keep it going. Good thread.

Thanks.

Looks like the two JDs maybe a male and female, although the larger would be the female... weird.
Anyway, here is the newest rescue. A 4" Red Tailed Shark. Too aggressive in his original home.

Keeping the thread alive, haha.
Got a new rescue today, unfortunately no pics yet. It is a 12" "Zebra Tilapia" that also has HITH. His previous tank was and is a 35-Gallon, but it gets better, it's a Hexagonal Tank! Less room then a regular rectangular tank! It gets better. The water was absolutely disgusting! His black coloring matched the water! Could barely tell there was a fish in the tank, and even at such a small tank size! Now that ain't right, lol. These people have had him in the tank for 10 years, and said that he is very aggressive, and does not tolerate tank-mates. Now don't get me wrong, these people where very nice and thoughtful, gave me the entire tank+stand plus filter, powerhead, two air pumps, sinking pellets, light, cover, some rocks, a decoration, a Cichlid book, and some filter pads. Everything I needed for the tank. Great people, just not very good at keeping their tank clean...
I did a water change after filling it up all of the way, and the water has cleared up significantly, but still needs work. Hoping to make it look really nice, even with a big ugly Tilapia, lol. I was able to pull it off with Bruce.
Pictures tomorrow!!!!!
