My set-up

[benmcfadden]

Hi

Been a member for about a year but mainly read and get info from here. Thought I would fianlly post bout my set-up.Think im in the right place.

Currently I have a 10x2x2 tank with a 5x2x2 sump.

Current stock list -

Green Terror
Red Terror
Jaguar
Synspillium

2 x Bichir - 12 + 14 "
Shovelnose - 9"

I used to have two Motoro's but I lost them in moving tanks so currently looking to get some more.

The tank I bought second hand so im still thinking about getting a 10x2x3 high in the new year.

Will post up some photos but my photobucket is playing up right now.

Nice stock!

& this part of the forum is more for people asking questions about their setup and filtration, not for sharing their stock and setup. The "General Aquaria Discussion" would've been a much better place to post this thread. Maybe a mod could move this thread for you to a better place.

Awesome, what fish do you keep ?

I guess you like clownknifes. I have an 18" one in another set up I have with an Oscar and a Jardini arowana.

Cool, ya, I love clown knives and all knife fish. My clown knife is only 8" but he is growing very fast. I'm probably going to trade him for a frontosa cichlid soon because I don't have a tank big enough for him when he gets bigger and would hate for him to live a miserable life. & I can't get another (bigger) tank anytime soon. I hate to see him go and I will miss him a lot, but I'm doing whats best

-Green Terror
-Jack Dempsey

Thanks, you should get a jack dempsey, red devil, or a texas cichlid. They're great fish

I want a JD for my tank, in a smaller set up I had two EBJD but they died for no reason.
