I plan on having a huge tank one day but probally not that big more like a 30000 for me unless i can afford to out do arapaimag
Question for big dreamers:
- Thread starter Zoodiver
- Start date
I may be flammed for saying this but I would do atleast 100 convicts....but that is just for the feeders. Then I would deffinatly get all the monsters like RTC, TSN, Marbled cat, some monster pikes would be stunning....and some giant sevs of all varieties. I think the giant school of convicts would be cool though because they would get massive and you would have tons of feeders and you would see lots of natural behaviors.

this is a damn good question, so here goes my imagination:
Cichla monos and temensis: they like to be in groups, so i'd have about 10 of each in here
leopoldis, motoros, and those tiger rays... i'd have about a dozen rays in total.
tigrinus catfish... a dozen or so of these
Tiger shovelnose and RTC: 2 of each...
silver and black aros: 4 in total, I feel when you have too many they don't look as good... too many fish patrolling the surface and then you can't really concentrate on any one to appreciate their "pissa-ness" (i made that word up, im from boston, and I didnt wanna say "beauty" because that sounds fruity)
2 pairs of paired off green terrors
a shoal of 100 bleeding heart tetras: the new england aquarium has these fish in with large cichlids and other predatory fish. id just keep my fish well-fed to keep them from picking these guys off... which probably wont work but i have a blank check so i can do whatever i damn well please
10 red tailed barracudas: full grown and on the prowl... these guys would be unreal and would be able to attain their full length of a foot and a half, which should keep them from getting swallowed.
assortment of plecos: gotta have garbage men but I wouldnt have too many because they might bother the rays
a pair of Amazon yellow-spotted turtles

I'd go for a hundred convicts over a pima any day of the week. Ease of keep and more interesting to watch.
I'd go for arrows, a pair of rays, cons, colorful chiclids like sevs and red devils, a small school of pacu, red hooks, and a mass of tetras.
