Characin Tank Movie

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Get the "embed" code from youtube and put it between {YT] and [/YT}, except use square brackets on the outside.

Your Tigrinus looks scared.
 
dunno why the tig swims upright like that sometimes.

doesn't seem to work?

mad ness I love your tank. It makes me want to try to add some atf to my dorado tank. Thanks for posting.
 
your code seems incorrect, should be this

<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GP8MvwB3XA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GP8MvwB3XA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

make sure your code is text and not a hyperlink
[yt]<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GP8MvwB3XA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1GP8MvwB3XA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>[/yt]
 
JP, thanks. that's the code I used (copy paste from youtube) but may be the links with in were still live.

KNH - I've got 7 dorados of comparable size in another tank. Would have loved to mix them in but couple issues. Dorado tend to not just bump into but target and bite elongated silver colored fish. This tank's already over crowded so the high activity of dorados would have caused unrest, but suspect if that were not to be the case say in a larger tank, that the dorados may still try to attack. Having a group of 3 or more appears to help, i may still try when the larger tanks ready.

I've read enough dorado threads to know that dorado and atf together probably won't work. I love the movement of dorado and your atf seem to be quite active compared to the armatus. A nice little school of aft would be fun to try. I currently only have the one dorado with large armoured cats and rays in a 750g. Thanks.

might work in a 750 for a while depending how they're fed but D's grow so much faster. VATFs do move a lot but it's in spurts and no pattern. D's tend to repeat repeat repeat like a stamping machine, which i like too. yes, armatus and gatf are much less active in comparison. i still want to try it... had dorados in a tank with a much larger solo vatf (2x's size) while back and that went ok.
 
This is one of my most favorite Tanks in the world. Yes you made my worlds favorite tank list.

Thanks for sharing.
