portugal
so as most of you guys know i bought half of redfish in portugal, wich is a pro fish store, so it makes no sence to keep 20 tanks and 7000 liters of water home, so i'm selling all my tanks and getting a really big one instead, and a small 1,5m emergency tank.

so the glass for the new tank is here... it's 700kgs of glass lol delivered this morning in a huge truck by 8 guys. it's a
3.55m long, one meter high, and 70cms wide. it's a beast.

now i have to take some of my tanks out urgently and start building this thing... the inox stand is being built.

so it's 2 weeks tops and we got this baby up and runnig...

to put in it, i'm gonna keep all my odder and rarer fish... you know what i'm talking about, if not just to give you an idea,

-1 xbackbluebase asian arowana
-1 izaku red asian arowana
-1 rtg asian arowana
-1 black SA arowana
-1 silver SA arowana
-1 jardini arowana
-1 cuban gar
-1 spotted gar
-1 cichla monoculus
-1 cichla temensis
-1 cichla ocellaris
-1 cichla orino
-1 flag tail
-1 tigrinus
-1 channa pleuroptalma
-1 clown knife
-a bunch of dats
-and a bunch of motoro stingrays
- and of course the FRT


all the other fish must and are going... it's a pitty because of guys like the puffers and bixirs, but it will still look a lot nicer than all hte other combined and being a big tang and an only tank it will ocuppy a lot less of my time.


i'll update as soon as there is something to see.

what do you guys think?
 
I bet it feels good to have it all consolodated...

what size tank?lol

pritty big... there nothing like having the glass in front of you to have an idea, with the stance and tank it will be 1,90cms high... so it will look pritty amazing a guess :D
 
You better post a picture when you get all this up and running :D
 
judging from the stocklist that is going to be an incredible tank...can't wait to see what it will look like

Get larger bichirs to put with them.. P. ansorgii for example :-)

well it would be an idea, but because of the rays i'm not risking it, plus the frt does not like bichirs at all... ;)
