Decided to upgrade Damian's tank to a 36 Rep tank. Good footprint size and should be able to hold him for quite a while. It is like he has his own little pond!

nice, I'll be doing another soon also, so I'll post once its set-up. chompers is finally going to be moving into his own tank, since i feel he is ready
 
thanks guys. he is such a friendly little guy. he comes to the front of the tank and begs like a dog. Also, he will NEVER try to get one of those guppies. I mean he watched them eat his food and waits till they are done before going in for the leftovers haha.
 
Hey what size tank is that?

it is a 36 gallon reptile tank. has the same footprint as my 90 gallon. really low, wide tank. They state do not fill with water, but whatever. This tank actually had a MASSIVE crack that was all over the entire left corner. I did a super silicone job on it and it has held water forever. had it completely filled with water for a long time.

Oh how this will change :ROFL:. Ive kept these guys before, and they dont stay that way lol. When hes about twice the size he is now, he will start to show aggression. Some are more agro than others. One of mine that I grew to about the size of a dinner plate got so mean that he had to have a pond of his own. Anything else in the enclosure would be pursued and attacked relentlesly untill it was dead and consumed.

Well, i am actually hoping for this day to come. I did not put the guppies in there to be his playmates :ROFL:
