Sounds like a nice setup, pics would be awesome though!

Something tells me that even though your tiger barbs are "fat", that they will become lunch soon for either the gator gar or the arrowana. I know because I own 6 obese tiger barbs haha

what are the future plans for the gator gar? Also pics!!!!!

Pics soon. My desktop is down, posting via iPhone.

Im all but certain the Tigerbarbs will become lunch....it sux for them, but that sort of thing happens when your sold for $.75 each from the LFS. Until that day, they are my lil psychotic cleaning crew.

I have dreams of building a 1000 gallon plywood tank in my basement, or Ill give the gator gar to my friend who wants to put him in his 300. He's gonna get huge.

Random, but where in NY are you? I might be willing to take those tiger barbs off your hands for you (maybe not all 11, but definitely 5).
