My Flagtail Prochilodus in his 180gal tank

is that a sump in the stand, or another tank

 

[groovylime]

It's a little 22 gallon bow-front tank. The sump is in the covered part of the stand.

cool idea... and wow thats one nice flagtail...and a nice tank too!

Yeah, that's a sweet flagtail. How old is it? I can't wait for mine to be that big.

Even though I just got him this week, my oscar has pretty much instantly become my favorite fish. He has so much personality. As far as a fish that's worth the most, that would be my flagtail. Around here, I've only seen them for sale once, and it just happened to be during a big sale, so I got a fish marked for $50 (for a little 2.5" fish) for like $16. Once he's a monster (so far he's around 4"), he'll be worth a couple hundred.

[peewee]

So you took sand from the wild for your tank?

wow, where are you located? i've seen 5-6in fairly frequently for around $20-$35 depending on if its the lfs or a chain-store. but i still highly doubt a flagtail being worth a couple hundred, regardless of size.
