moving with animals/building new tanks

[AFRO-thunder]

Hey guys,

Currently I am moving to a flat with my girlfriend and of course my animals are coming with me. I thought I'd share some pics of my recent work with you as well as pics of the inhabitants of the tanks.

The rack, holds place for 4 tanks sized 120cm x 40cm x 40cm. There will be mostly turtles in it, maybe some plecos and live bearers as well.

tank for Jack Dempseys and amazon toad headed turtles (100cm x 100cm x 40cm)

Inhabitants: 6 Jack Dempseys (about 4cm long and not beautifully colored... I hope this will change) and 0.1 Batrachemys raniceps

Tank for map turtles, archer fish and Geophagus: 180cm x 60cm x 60cm, approx. 400l water in it. The tanks below are for rearing little turtles and for the Graptemys males.

Inhabitants:

I'll keep you guys updated on how the filling of the rack and the smaller tanks underneath the big one goes!

Wow, I am LOVING this tank....

Did you make?



Caution with the turtles and fish though, I wouldn't keep anything you like in with the turts.

thanks for the replies, guys!

I inserted the land area myself, just glued 2 pieces of glass in with silicone. I carefully selected the fish and turtles so I'm hoping that it works out well.
The Graptemys get only approx. 20cm in size, the fish will be 20cm too if they are grown up. So the only thing I have to hope for is that the fish will grow fast so they won't fit into the turtle's prey scheme.

Actually, the rack from the first pic comes from a fish store that closed down last year ;D

I can post more pics of the big tank on saturday when I get the possibility to take some pics!
