So i got myself a bigger tank today. :-D i no longer envy so-cals deal , because i found a 30 gallon on craigslist for ten dollars, Which turned out to be a 55 gallon for ten dollars with a woods stand :-D and a filter and like 50 pounds of substrate and a couple aquarium ornaments (that fit perfectly in with my desert like landscape :-D anyway it had a couple scratches on the tank but not to big of a deal. I also went to the dollar store a few hours later to pick up a stone halloween gargoyle decoration (it looks awesome in there too) along with a ceramic skull . anyway here is a panoramic picture of the tank completed. I used the water from the 30 gallon i had and just added some more so i didnt have to cycle the tank before i put the fish in . Now heres the fish i have (your all gonna think im crazy but most are proven to get along and the others are makin there own niche) 1 medium size oscar (new home soon at a friends house) 1 small dempsey, 1 small senegal bichir, 1 paradise gourami, 1 silver dollar, 1 rubber lip pleco, 1 female convict, 1 Gold Gourami 4 female guppies (there is now only 1 but they were meant to be food) :banhim:

umm have to burst your bubble, but you do realize that water doesn't cycle the tank, right?:screwy:
filter media, decorations, and substrate do. thats what the bacteria grows on. not in the water.
i think your crazy for the dempsey and the oscar. from experience. just wait a lil while.

ps. that dempsey is about to be food.

good deal for 10$ though. what a find:WHOA:
