hey all thought i would share my mini monster 100g tank, been pulling the stock together for a few months and im happy now. heres a stock list, i will post some pics shortly...

6 5 spot jewel cichlids
2 red jewel cichlids
1 asian bumblebee catfish
3 peppered cory
3 skunk cory
1 peacock eel
1 zigzag eel
1 goldspot plec

a few temp residents but thats my long term plan, may remove some 5 spots if aggression arises but they are fine atm, infact the reds push them around!-)

Alright Justin see you've been busy since we last spoke , how big are the five stars now ? My growouts fully stocked with mini monsters too need to grow them quick and split them up soon or there will be carnage lol

lol, i have been in car mode for a while tbh, been at audisport.net!-) just doing some maintenance and picked up a few new cory today so thought i would throw some shots up, tank is just refilling!-) the largest is about 80-90 mm now, i will throw a few pics up in a min...

yours are hardly mini monsters, more like baby monsters haha...

i love how my zigzag eel just went for a swim up my siphone then had 5 min on my patio as i moved garden furniture try to catch him lol, felt like a kid in a stream chasing frogs lol!!!

That tank is pure awesomeness bro!

 

[brich999]

Those 5 spots look excellent! Love that background too who makes it?

 

[justarn]

cheers, im afraid the background is just a good quality stick on picture brich, was already on the tank when i bought it... i actually enjoy this tank more than my big one atm, i will post a video up in a bit of the spiny eels eating bloodworm...

lights are great fun and can actually make a tank imo, much overlooked part of the hobbie... often a very low lit tank can look awesome, my 300 often only has the 35w 4ft t8 on!

cheers divemaster
