Filtration for my 500

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
the Loaches come out best at feeding time and it's been hard to get a good shot. here is a pic of my P enderlicheri. (sold to me as a Ornate Bichir but it's an enderlicheri) it's a bugger, ate all the other bichirs....

thinking about getting a golden mahseer, cool scales but WOW do they get big.... only 30cm at 3 years though, so slow growers. my LFS has one that is about 2.5", what do you think?
 
time for an update. i failed with 2 NTT's so i'm done with those, bummer cause i really like the way they look. i added an Ornate bichir.

wow, it's been a busy last couple months. i have moved to southwest Montana. it's only 300 miles but boy do i have a ton of stuff after living in our home for 17 years and having 3 kids. i have made several trips back and forth and finally have most of the inside things moved. of course the 500 had to stay behind. 1800 pounds of glass and it's built in. plus who can find a landlord who will let you have a tank like that. not to mention the new place doesn't have room. i had to down size to a 210, it is really small!!!!!
it was about 10degrees out side when i moved the fish. put them in garbage cans, c
oolers and plastic tubs. they all made the trip and have been in the 210 for a couple weeks. the tank looks way over crowded but hopefully this is just temporary until i can build a house and get another large tank.....
here is a link to a thread a friend posted for me, http://www.reeffrontiers.com/forums/f95/rob-julie-65782/ There are a few pics of what it looked like just before i took the 500 down.
i will post pics later of what the 210 looks like. that darn drift wood still floats. i had to cut it up to get it in the 210 :)
