Nice stock and tank!!! Got to love when those rare combos that no one else will touch work out! :headbang2 Id say add an FRT and call it a day.

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is a couple full tank shot! Excuse the photos as that's not my hobby! LOL Can't really see the Mbu as he is on the right hand side sitting on the bottom and the ripsaw is in the log and tigrinus under the drift wood! But center stage as usually is my ARMATUS!!

its prob best to keep 1 armatus instead of 2 or more

they like to bite eachothers eyes :screwy:

Thanks!
I blamed the few ornaments I had but I am sure it was the Armatus themselves that did damage to the each others eyes! Now that I have one I haven't had a problem!
 
Very nice setup, and Armatus. As for as the Mbu for those that don't know, it is relatively peaceful
and a descent community fish. Unlike the Fahaka that I have which I would never dare to add with
my rays as much as I would love to.

Thanks! The Mbu I have is definitely peaceful and doesn't harass anything but unfortunately sometimes gets a nip on its tail fin from the pikes. I had a Fahaka for a year but I needed to devote one tank for him as he was nasty, so I had to let him go to another home.
 
nice set up man.. we have similar taste except i have IT dats instead of pikes and bichirs for the rays...i still have all 4 of my armatus at similar size 14-15" and 2 black arros.. i need a bigger tank also.. 10'x3'x30"
