The whole tank has been running for a total of 5 weeks. The largest fish is the dragon moray which is 25". The tessie n white mouth still haven't been put in the tank yet. thanks. Pictures will be up by weekend hopefully.

sorry, youre tank is bigger than i thought , i thought you said it was 125 gallons / 500 litres. a good protien skimmer is a necessity as is a large filter system, what filter are you planning?

Yea Im trying to borrow a camera. Pictures soon

And triggers... I dont think I'll ever get into them, unless i upgrade to a bigger tank, but that wont be for a few years...
The fish i'm trying to get now are pineapple fish, really awesome looking, they have spines all over them like a puffer, but can school and stay small.


Kyle: damsels are pretty cheap where I go. I get 30 for 50 bux.

It all depends on who will get along with the other tankmates. All are aggressive and when they do get big who'll be left I would like to have more than one eel if tank is adequate So I just have 2 tanks and eels in both. Just 1 eel at the moment Yellowhead
