That's one big tankVery nice, what size is your monster?
Love the fresh water octopus at the bottom left of picture one
Sorry it's been a long day
Will be hunted down by the stocking police if I did that unfortunately... my clarias are getting big...the clown knifefish as well... 2 GGs added will make my tank look like those of Li and Jed...Yanbbrox;1379073; said:Snap 'em up Lou... then we can change the thread title to 'Watch our gourami's grow'

Lettuce, bananas and cheese and Georges favorites, he gets lettuce a lot as it's cheap. He can go through a leaf in a few minutes as well.
We lost another dollar today for no reason in his tank, George never picked on that one at all but came home and it was dead.
Just George, the kissing gourami who has always been a bit of a suck up in my opinion, Large plec, baby plec and the dollar that will never die left. I hope he finishes his growth spurt soon so the dollar can get some peace, it also enjoys the lettuce when it gets a chance
Btw did you notice the few more years experience I've gained, crappy videos at there best
Indeed I need a bigger tank! I always need a bigger tank! My 5x2x2 seems so small now... yet it's all I can afford. A larger one would be too heavy for the floor... wish I could get a 10x3x3...Yanbbrox;1379192; said:Can you not hear the voices in your head:

Yeah maybe the way too go is Koi pellets.
I really starting to wish I could just take my RTGG down to Florida and drop them in the pool along with some water lettace & hydrillia, along with the Florida sun, and Bingo instant eco system with constant free food source.
i use koi pellets..good stuff..
my RTGG and Pink GG will take anything i drop in the tank..lettuce, carrot, apple, grapes, small tomato, banana, strawberries, market shrimp, cichlid pellets, koi pellets, tilapia fillet..PIGS!
the shrimp and pellets are the staple, fruits and veggies are fed once or twice a week.
RTGG is already 16"..but i've had the pink on this diet since it was 4 inches..in 5 months it's now 10.5", growing super fast
