I'm new to the site so I figured I should post up some pictures of my setup.

Right now my fish list is:

Pictus Cat
Angelfish
Crown Betta
Octocinclus
Bala Shark
Pleco
Red/orange Gourami

thanks haha

Well I did have a different setup but the fish really didn't get along. I bought 4 angel's as babies (about the size of pennies), 1 IR shark, red tail shark, and algae eaters.. The red tail killed one of the angels...so i gave him to a buddy of mine thinking it would stop the violence..lol

The angels ended up laying eggs on the side of the tank and my IR shark had a habit of swimming into corners and he picked the wrong corner one day..I came home from work to find him getting mauled by 2 of the 3 angels. Tried to save him but he was to far gone and died 2 days later. Then the angels turned on each other and up until two weeks ago I only had the one angel (pictured) in the tank. So I went out and grabbed a few new ones, along with the red/orange gourami that was given to me by a friend who just didnt want it anymore.
 
that betta is gonna get tore up in there with that angel and shark. but nice tank and setup other then the betta that is doomed lol.

He might not be doomed - if you get some nice floating plants he does stand a chance...

I had one that survived with 2 JD's, he only died when I switched tanks...

(btw - its by bf's daughters betta, and she was warned it would get eaten)
 
Thanks, and I was planning on getting some plants/rocks to fill it up soon.

As for the betta, He has been holding his own in there and hanging out with the gourami. It's actually pretty funny to watch, if the shark goes near him both the betta and gourami turn around together and the shark just swims away fast. I will be sure to pick up some hiding places though!
