By request, some shots of 12 Volt Man's tanks

[12 Volt Man]

Hey everyone.

I recieved a PM the other day asking why have I not posted any recent shots of my tanks?

hahaha

so, here are some:


two partial fishroom shots,

one shot of 90 and 65, showing giant lemon finned barbs, pretty big tinfoil barbs, silver dollars etc.

Those freakin barbs are huge!@ Do they ever freak out and thrash that tank?

some close ups of the 18 inch monsters:

now, a disclaimer:

whenever I post pics of these monsters, a fish police officer inevitably comes in and says "how can you let your fish get that big in that tank its cruel etc"

Well, I have said it before and I will say it again:

under my care, they will remain healthy, and I can guarentee that.

under someone elses, they would probably end up dead.

keeping 18 inch fish healthy in home aquaria takes experience, and I don't trust just anyone to look after these guys. Hence, why they have not gone back to the LFS to be purchased by someone who never does water changes and overfeeds...



they will have a 150 gallon tank within a year or so.

I have told them and they can't wait

I don't mean to sound nasty or anything but it doesn't look like it's 65 gal.
