New 3500 gallon tank- trying to decide what fish...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I would have to say, Arowana with Rays. It would be too expensive to turn into a reef. Arowana community tank with rays and a arapaima hehehe
 
I have been told this tank was once upon a time a tidal pool saltwater setup but that was back in the 60's and 70's.
I guess Koi are cheap compared to the big saltwater fish I used to buy, and cheaper than a pair of good sized arowana and some rays! I don't have to start with a lot of big Koi- a bunch of smaller ones would be fine- they will grow pretty quickly in a 3500 gallon setup. The LFS has some really nice looking butterfly Koi about 6" long for $19.99.

I promise I will get pics on Monday.
 
a pair of alligator gar!
 
I'd go with a couple of Gar, a couple of channel cats, and a few largemouth bass.
 
hmm so many options, def post some pics so i can imagine if i had it and what i would do lol
 
Channel cats are $5 at Earl May, pacu can be found at petsmart and then you just add in over the course of say a year w/e you find appealing because you can fit just about anything.
 
large cats, rays, aros, pacu, and pbass. what else does a person need in life? :D
 
you could go the amazon route. go with some SA catfish, Oscars, Pbass, pacus...
