For my B-day, I got a $5 dollar fish cop'un. It was goinng to x-spire today, so I figured I'd make use of it. Found a moderate looking 2" texas among several 5-8" oscars, and I have always wanted one after have a jag./texas hybrid. I put a bagg of feeder in to destact the other fish. a little fin nipping happend but thats to be expected. so far, so good

is the tank going to be big enough, i thought RD get big and are bullys. otherwise it sounds cool. get pics if it works for us....
well, I hope to get at least a 125 this summer, but for know, hesin a 55 with a 10" carapo knife that keeps to itself unless bit, a 4" pictus cat(common type), 2" JD, 3" KK parrot, 3.5" Female Red Devil, 7-9" male KK parrot(bred with RD not to long ago, eggs were infertile), and a 5" bicher. I have a smaller alibino bicher growing out in a 10 gal. thats going in soon. Its a little overstocked with the larger parrot and the carapo. the lfs said the bigger parrot was to big, so they made me an offfer i could not refuse ($20), then a couple weeks later, they got in a mystery knife (carapo) and gave it to me for only $10. You know how these things get. I start detasilling for a 3rd year next week, then after that, I will start working at an expensive icecream shop(tcby) to get upgrade money. If I can afford it, I will keep the 55 as a breeder tank. I am thinking I will get a jaguar, and hybridize it with the texas. I had an 7-8" texas jag that was awsome. it had the pattern of a Jag, but it was also completely iredescent like a texas. I had to give it to my science teacher, but it jumped after a few monthes( I was going to get it back as soon as I upgraded.)
