New to me 180 Gallon Tank

[Drewhop]

So far my stocking is a 12" Oscar and 12" Pleco. I currently have the tank set up out in my garage making sure it does not have any leaks. I also reinforced the stand and did a little bit of glass repair. I need some ideas for stocking to go along with my current stock. I am pretty open to any ideas just as long as I get to keep my first two mini monsters.

Here are some pics of the work I did on the tank tonight. Should be set up in the next few days. I will have updates. Yes I know the tank was set on the stand backwards but was not to worried about it cause that is only its leak test home and not permanent.

congrats on the upgrade man. there are many threads suggesting stocking, and with a 180, you have plenty of options.

texas, jd, grammodes, eartheaters, crenicichlas, the list goes on.

good luck, hopefully no leaks so you can move that tank in its permanent place.

Nice tank. Hope it passes leak check. Stock with whatever you see that you like and is compatible.
