excuse the tank, its just a holding tank


I was going to ask about that. You've got all these monster's lately, and they're all pictured in that tiny round/bow front tank. Where are they all going to live? So far I've seen an RTC, a TSN, a hoplo, at least 1 oscar, what might have been a JD, and now this syno, but you've got them all crammed in that little tank... Is that a Quarantine tank? Can you show us a picture of the tank that they're living in, if that is, in fact, just a holding tank.

Nice pickup btw, I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just curious since you keep buying all these big fish and asking for ID's and info, then putting them in that small looking tank.

Glad to hear it. There's certainly nothing wrong with asking questions, and I do my fair share, I guess maybe I've just been working in a pet store too long...
