Sux when this happens

[MarcN.]

Sti tirelessly counting the days for the arrival of the 100. I just finished deciding the stocks:

2 albino sens
1 sen (brown)
1 sen (silver/gray)
1 ornate
1 delhezi
1 pair of red spot sevs
1 pair of convicts (free self raised feeders )

Just got a temp 55 set up for them and there seems to be peace lolz

I really dont have yet a full grown upper jaw like my lower jaws so i think this will work, and i really don't buy adult fish. Smaller ones are cheaper and prefer I raise them myself ☺ it creates more bonds.

50g upper jaw tank broke without even being touched 50g of water all down the living room. Took me 4 hrs to clear things up.

Right now the polys are all in my hosp tank, whew! Just lost 2 frontosas and a pleco.

Should I get this tank repaired or just get a 75 or a 100 asap? It's actually a custom built tank made of 1/4" glass so i am quite surprised it breaks just like that and it's only 1.5 week old.

Or is this tank would be nuff for an upper jaw project tank? It runs with an overhead planted sump and 75g rated chinese HOB.

Btw, the ornate will be housed with big boys lower jaw 180g tank once he gets big nuff not to be eaten

Appreciate your opinion guys.

It's a little odd they didn't distribute the pressure at the top

Skittish little fellow, very hard to get a clear shot of her.

But they are just the common sen sold here @$1 per 2-3" that leans towards the brownish side. The other sen I have is more gray, almos the se color as the base of my cons just lighter.

My friend started a new tank and he saw my sen, so i gave it to him. The two i left with me got eaten by my lower jaw when my 75g broke.

After being half way of the weeks mark the tank builder promised to replace the broken tank, the 60 year old guy passed away leaving mthe work half finished.

The family of the tank builder promised finish all the work left unfinished not just for me but for other customers as well. They will just need to employ a new builder.

I am in no rush as I understand the grief they are goin through and the polys are not that big yet. So I decided to make the most of what I have now.
