ur gona upgrade in like a year right? if u do u could get some rays to grow out the the silvers till u get a bigger tank for both of them if u get rid of the pleco.
Do you know what you're saying? You recommending him to get rays to go with his silver that will eventually go in either a 125 or a 180? You do know that not even one ray will fit in a 180 for life and especially not a 125 right? I hope you didnt know that and gave him advice thinking rays would work in a 125.
 
dude read my other posts. i said u could have them in a 180 for a year and with a ray grow them out and get a much bigger tank............ im not giveing bad advise im just telling him what he could do in the short run then he will need to do for the long run.

Seems you need to read clearly too, he said he will be upgrading to a 125 or a 180. Recommending him fish that will only fit in a 300 gallon is not giving him advice on what he could do in a short run, but instead, giving him an option that will probably screw him over. Does 180 gallons and 300 gallons seem close in volume?
 
im in college im poor. bad idea lol. and rays are illegal in cali, but i would still buy one and I don't had a huge tank. I might build a 300 gallon tank or do an outdoor pond build.
 
well if they're illegal in cali, then you dont even need to consider rays...
 
theres one at my lfs, they keep it with a few catfish, not sure what kind but they just a little bit smaller than the jar itself.

your best bet would be bottom dwellers, start with some small cheap ones to see how it acts on them. Common bristlenose or someting. Just too see how it acts to it.
 
get bichirs,gars with your jar thats what i have with it
