Always loved the big Aros. Just started reserching them when I saw a bunch of 3-4"s for sale a my lfs. I currently have a 180 (6x2x2) with 8 x 3" Discus, 6 x 3-4" Geos, 9 x 3.5" Clownloaches, and a big bunch of Black Tetras. Would putting 1 or 2 of these little guys in there be a safe bet? They would be in for probibly a year of so till I start my big tank. Goin to be building a glas/ply tank next year. Going to be somewhere between 325- 500 gallons. I already have a nice piece of glass just waiting to be built into a tank. Going to be putting my current house up for sale in the spring and don't want to start a build till I know what kinda space I'm going to be dealing with in the new place. If I can get a place with a nice basement that can take an in-wall tank build, I'd be hoping to make the tank around 500g. But if I have to build it free standing, ie: up against a wall, It'll probibly be 325-375g. Don't want a bigass deep tank sticking out into the room. In-wall will probibly be about 96x36x30, free-standing will probibly be about 90x30x30. Would a Aro be okay in the 180 for maybe a yr. and a half? And would he be okay for life in the above mentioned tanks? The fish in the 180 won't be going in with the Aro, if I do indeed get one. Wow! This explanation turned out longer than I expected. Oh well, the more info the better, right? Anyway, thanks.
