Nothing as crazy as some of these.. but it is indeed an odd mix, and asian inspired by the mixing and filtration.

3x fire eels 12"+
2x neolampus brichardi 3"
1x needlenose charachin 10"+
1x albino O 5"+

emperor 200, and magnum hott canister.

tank size 40 breeder.

had 3 brichardi until i forgot to xfer feeders from the other tank. needlenose was hungry..:irked: smallest brichardi is missing and needlenose is fat.. otherwise I've seen no aggresion issues other then when I first introed the 2 newer fire eels with the current one, and thats calmed down to almost nothing.

2x senegel
1x TT eel

will soon me xfered into the tank. and brichardi pair are going to be moved into that tank.

grow out tanks are always interesting conglomorations.

Awesome! :headbang2 You da man. Are those platy's in the bigger tank with your tig??

I got about a thousand baby platy's and man do they breed it keeps my bichirs in shape catching them lol. I probably get 50 fry from each pair every month.
 
My 55g is waiting to be overstocked :O

5 Convicts
1 Oscar(still small)
1 Sen Bichir

+ growing out a JD and jag in a 10g. Thought they were 0.75" but when I measured em an hour ago(first time measuring fish with a ruler), they were nearly 2" w/tail :WHOA:. Tankmates with the JD and jag are 2 otocinclus and 3 angelfish o.o

I would move the oscar and sen bichir into their own 55g but the tank doesn't have a lid...probably guna breed guppies so my parents won't throw the tank out :grinno:
