My Black Rhom's Buffet

[bomber]

In his 150g wide(24") kingdom Lucifer has a community buffet.

100x 1.5-2.5" G. Danio's
24x 2" tin foil barbs
40x 1.5"Large red eye tetra's
2x 5-6"reg pleco's
1x 5"emperor pleco
10x 3/4"assassin snails
1x 5"cigar fish aka golden shark

Surprisingly, he is too lazy to chase down the fish. Lucifer is eating smelt stuffed with massivore and these fish are extremely fast. I love the look of a community buffet. These community fish are all powerfeed 3x a day with quality food. So hopefully Lucifer will catch them when they are too fat to run away.

that is a whole lot of fish buddy LOL, would love to see this in action! My gar ruins any chance of me doing this, when the lights go out...the gar gets fat.

I forgot about the 5 dalmation mollies, 1 velvet swordtail, 3 female convicts and 1 male convict.

Lucifer kills crayfish on sight but there is more work for him with fish. He seems lazy when I am around.

Here are a few shots I just took of the fish. Funny thing is the photo's do not do the number count justice but I know how many fish "were" in there before the massacre started.

I added red led lights blue led lights on the bottom of his tank shining upwards a few months ago. This is what his tank looks like when the timer shuts the day lights off and turns on the Mag 8 and LED's.

Here are what is left of the danio's and the cigar shark. Always hiding in the brush. Hard to snap a shot of them cause they never stay still.

Red eye tetra's.

Tin foil barbs.

convicts.

assorted pleco's.

velvet swordtail and Dalmatian mollies.

Assassin snails, clump here but they are scattered.

full tank shot.

All these fish are power fed 3-4 times a day. Hopefully Lucifer can catch one of these gut loaded feeders.

I like the way a shoal tightens up when there's a predator lurking..........
