I will post some pictures up soon but i just wanted to share what i have.
over christmas i purchased a new 225 gallon tank as an upgrade tank for my Red Tail Catfish who is about 19" right now. also with him is a 9" red devil.

i now am using my 90 gallon fish tank as a "grow up" tank for the 225 gallon. so i need to power feed the new guys. i have hikari food sticks, i will also feed frozen brine, beef heart and blood worms....maybe worms too???

here is the list of all in the 90 right now. i will be moving some to the bigger tank and some will stay.
i have:

Peacock Bass (Temensis, i think)
Datnoid (not sure what breed, wide bar maybe)
Texas Cichlid X 2
Green Terror X 2
Oscar (Tiger and albino red) X 2
Flowerhorn X 2
Red Devil X 3
Tin Foil Barb (Dither fish) X 3
Convict X 2
Pleco



i cant wait to grow these little guys up - what do you think?
they have to be big enough to avoid RTC's mouth :P
 
ya I think that is a little to much to have all of those crammed in the 90 especially with you have 2-3 of them when full grown that would even be to much for the 225 even if they all survived which I have my doubts about...

I know that it is sort of playing with fire....but i do have my sisters 180 that i can put fish in when i need the room Also i have another 55 set up as well..
i think i should be able to manage with this...mostly i have the big tank for peacock and RTC...everything else is just extra....i do love my fish though.

i do take great care in the tanks and clean them all atleast once a week.
 
when full grown you are looking at 198"s (16.5 feet) of fish not including the p bass and the RTC, P bass around 2' and RTC around 4'...
 
Yep its a lot i know that - but i do have 4 fish tanks to put them in like i said...thats if i decide to keep everything too.

my intentions were to buy some fish (for cheap because they are small) and grow them up.keep the nice ones and move the rest around..

does anyone have any ideas what kind of peacock i have, also the Datnoid too?
