After seeing Zilch Zilch 's, I've become interested in lungfish. Would an SA lungfish fit in my 210? 7 x 2 x 2.

Mine is in a 265, but they can reach 3 feet plus, they're pretty eel like so they can be pretty content in that footprint. If bioload is a concern though you might want to think twice. Sometimes it looks like a 5 year old deuced in my tank D:

I plan to build a nitrate filter soon, so bioload won't be an issue once it's running.

Sounds good, mine was pretty sedentary until the pearsei started bullying him but now he's constantly zooming around. We'll be building a bigger tank in the next few years so he'll be moving over. I can't comment on growth rate after 2 feet since that's about where I'm at, but he went from a little 6-8" noodle to his current size in about a year.

Definitely watching nitrate filter results from you and J jaws7777 because I'd love to keep my water healthier without the frequency of water changes I'm doing now

This is good to know....as someone else who is living vicariously through your SAL ownership. :D

Wow! That's a huge growth rate. Also yes, would love to hear about the nitrate filter results too!

One of the two Sens I'm growing out has put on a good half inch a bit of girth. Hopefully I can move it to the 210 within a month.

CB sens are pigs to the third degree

That substrate has really washed your sen into a dark colour though

The Sen is in the high tech; I use fluval statrum in it. Hopefully the Sen will look better once the Monte Carlo grows in.
