Well finally got moved into the house and everybody made it no problem. Currently I have 3 tanks running, in the coming months I hope to only have a large indoor pool and my 220 running.

Onto the pics (sorry for poor quality)
220-6 C. temensis, 2 C. piquiti, 1 C. pinima

125-3 C. sp. "Colombia", 2 C. kelberi, 1 C. mono x ocellaris
Can anybody make any guess on the id of these "Colombian" pbass? I'm not sure if you guys remember but a member on here was selling them as Orinos a few months ago, well based on the pics I knew they weren't orinos and honestly had no idea what they were. Any ideas would be great, I'm not really sure of what they are, they are supposedly wild and from Colombia if I remember correctly.

75-5 C. orinocensis, these little guys are from Rapps, I inadvertantly got them hooked on tilapia filet and thats all they seem to want to eat aside from live and a little bit of bloodworms here and there. Definitely small compared to a lot of people's but they're coming along.

NICE
 
102" x 71" x 36" I think, gonna go the cheap route and just get one of those pools, the house needs too much to work to allow me the time to build them a plywood tank this year so that'll have to be put on hold.

what pools? explain plz...i wanna know the plan =p
 
buy a small pool, right up a couple of fluval fx5's and airstones, house them in there with heaters, there are a lot of sites that show smaller above ground pools, some inflatable, some not
