not sure how many people will even remember me, but I decided to try and catch up. I used to be at 1000-ish posts a month, probably won't get that high again. Anyway here are my current tanks.
This is my south American community. I'm sure some people will notice the African cichlids in there as well. I had an African tank but decided to take it down. I kept a few of them that I couldn't bare to sell. I was hesitant at first but mixing the south Americans and Africans has worked out well. The Africans have grown a lot since the tank change and seem to be healthier in general. There is little to know fighting in this tank. The oscar (named Grandpa.) is the supreme ruler who stops all fights immediately.
My flowerhorn pair Carl (right) and Florence (left). They haven't had a successful batch, but try constantly and never fight.
Here you can see the 4 foot bamboo plants. These keep my nitrates at 0. I have bamboo in all my tanks.
My featherfin catfish in the flowerhorn tank. Adorable and getting quite large. =]
This is my bullfrog tank. He spends most of his time in here. His name is snorlax.
This is snorlax's feeding tank. The superworms dig into the coconut fibre so I feed him in this tank with smooth gravel. Also his normal tank is dirty so he is in this one so I can clean his main tank.
here he is. =] He is about 4 inches long and round. He was about 2.5 inches when I got him 3 months ago. I thought he would grow faster. Anyone have any info on this species? I am new at keeping large frogs.
And finally this is chester. My 2 foot long cobra snakehead. You can see his dinner behind him. He used to be in a larger tank but kept hurting himself when he got spooked. So I have to keep him in this tank. The ammonia, nitrites and nitrates are kept at zero with bamboo and weekly water changes. He is much healthier now than when I got him.
Please comment with any tips or suggestions. I have two more small tanks but I cannot post a picture of one due to the COUGH questionable legality COUGH of its inhabitants. ( still haven't identified the species so not sure if it is legal here or not.) The other is my betta which I will post if someone wants.
