Here are my native fish that I have had for about a month. There is one brown bullhead and two pumpkinseeds. I caught the bullhead on hook and line. The pumpkins in minnow traps. My ultimate plan for them is a native biotope tank (75+g) with EVERYTHING from the place they came. Wood, plants, gravel etc. I hope to have this done by or around Christmas.

Yes, I know it bows in the front...I need to find a bungee cord. I am also aware that there is a floating biowheel in there. I don't know what made me put it there but its there.

Sounds cool, all you need is a large mouth!!!
 
Yeah, and they live in the pond...I just don't have tank room for them. If I had them and golden shiners I would have every species from that pond...I think.
 
just a bungee cord wont fix it.. it will prolly make it bow worse.. maybe try putting a piece of wood on the front and rear of the tub and the use either a bungee cord or a strap..nice fish and pretty cool temp. tank..
 
You think so? I saw a setup very similer with two cords so thats why I thought they would work.
 
it might work but it seems that it would put the sides in even farther and break the tub.. but if it works cool.. if it doesnt you can always try my suggestion..
 
is the tub bow.. or was like that

i use about 5 of these tubs with fulled water.. and none of them bowed



nice fish :)
 
nvm about the bow.. i just read it all .... mine dont do that.. how big are your tubs
