Massive water flow!

What kind of pumps did you use?

The pumps are Cal Pump Magnetic Drive waterfall pumps 5200 GPH. I'd never heard of them, but they were cheap, and they came with a one-year warranty. So far, so good.

Wow that looks really nice and your fish probably like the extra filtration a lot.

Are you planning on getting any more species?

Nah, I think we're pretty much done! I'm figuring on about 12 or 13 feet or so of fishies when everyone's grown. Maybe after that, there will be a fish in need LOL I'd love to adopt another Pacu but have been worried that we'll be overstocked. Of course, when I mention that, I always get, "Oh, no I've got *insert bunch of large fish here* in my pond, you're good!" But, I figure it's better to be safe, than sorry!

It's good that you have such good stocking discipline By the way, your RTC looks awesome, can't wait till I get mine.

LOL all of my tanks are understocked by MFK standards. I try not to bring it up too much, though, or I get lots of messages about what else I can put in my tanks.

You should show lots of pics when you get him. Are you getting a little guy? They're really something when they're small!

There will def. be pix, I get kinda camera crazy whenever I get a new fish or pet...

Probably getting one around 3-6" because thats the size range I've seen them in at the LFS. Either getting the RTC or a tiger shovelnose, I couldn't decide so it's going to be whichever I find for sale first.

I'm completely partial to RTCs... so I say wait until one comes along! I must admit I have never had a TSN, and I've only had one RTC (the one I have now), but I can't imagine a more friendly, interactive, and handsome fish than him.
