Fellow MFKer Needs Help-Arapaimaman needs help finishing 15000 gal tank Central FL

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Will you stock it with any SA Cichla along with your Arapaimas? Or any other type of SA fish?

If the helping day were any other day than this Sunday, I could make it to help out. My son's 2nd birthday party will be that day. If there's another day for helping out, I'll be sure to be there...

...I due need a qualified electrician this Sunday if it's possible...
I'm qualified, just not licensed. As long as a new permit isn't going to be pulled, we'll be fine.
 
And I'm the guy that's 170 pounds of rippling steel.





...unfortunately I weigh 195 pounds.

The tank has been design for mainly one type of fish-Arapaima Gigas. It will be a all South American tank. I have kept Pima's and fished for them in S.A. for over 27 years. In 1985 I built a 1,500 gallon tank out of marine plywood and fiberglass. I have design this new tank after my old one,Its just 10 times bigger ! I'm using a Triton sand pool filter but,I will use pea gravel for it. This is what I used on the 1,500 and there was never a problem with the water.
Thanks to all the responeses and all the PM's.This is a small house and there is not much room to work with. The number of volunteers is unbelievable and I want to thank all of you.
I due need a qualified electrician this Sunday if it's possible.
Once the tank is done and filled with fish I'm going to have a open house for everbody that lives in this town and any MFK'ers that whant to come by.
Pat
