Jakob's 125g

[Jakob]

Haven't posted much for the past months. I've been busy at school.
So this thread is about my 125g, the tank is about 3 years old. The stock list is not very impressive, but anyways here goes:
1x Polypterus Endlicheri ~8"
1x Polypterus Senegalus ~9"
1x Polpterus Palmas Polli ~10"

I picked up a tiny little red tail catfish today, just over 2" I think, I will measure him tomorrow. He is in a smaller tank for now, but I hope he will grow fast (guaranteed) so he can join the big boys in the 125.

I don't have any new photos, but I will upload some new ones tomorrow.
But because this is the photo lounge here are some old pics of the current stock:

Palmas Polli: Bought this one at 4" on March 11th 2010

Endlicheri: Bought it at 3" on August 15th 2010

JAKOB: I have been keeping fish for many years ,and a avid reader of aquaria ,for my opinion dont mix your RTCFish on your other dragonfin fish if you dont want to ad them on the menu ....And by the way good luck for your RTCFish i hope he will reach the total size......

Trust me, i know what i'm doing, i have been keeping fish for several years now and i read about fish atleast an hour every day. The Endli will grow quickly and the Polli will get thick shortly, so i think it will be ok for atleast 7-8 months.

Great job making them grow so beautiful like that..

Thank you, I do my best

Day 3

The Rtc started eating today, frozen shrimp. I did a 45% w/c in his tank today also.
The Senegalus that was sharing a tank with him had started biting him and ripping his fins so i put the sen in the 125 so now the Rtc has the grow out for himself. And we got him the name Mick Jagger, because of the mouth.

Here are some pics of Mick and the fish in the 125:

With the ruler, he was measured 8cm/3".

In my hand, I will give you another one to compare the growth in a couple of months.

The tank that he lives in.
