[robmcd]

Picked it up today. Heres what it looks like now. But not for long.... Got a lot of work to do on it and Im gonna try to document it here for you all. Wish me luck.

Looking good! What are you going to put in there?

Another Bass player I see... I have a 240 (glass) that we'll be setting up fairly soon and I'll document everything (DIY stand...hood ect.) Looks like you have a great start to a really impressive tank.

That tank is going to be dope Rob. Hook it up and definitely keep us posted in the Pike section, cuz we know there are gonna be some monster pike in there.

Great looking tank! Any ideas on what stock is going in there.

Right now Im looking at 5 cobras (or similar lug pike),1 c.vittata, 5 hoplarchus psittacus, 3 prochilodus or so, and a couple of plecs so far. Im looking into a couple different flavors of vieja and some other random cichlids.

Nice pick up, what are the dimensions? It don't look to be the standard 8' x 2' x 2', looks to have more depth from front to back.

Looks good Rob. I like the idea of some Viejas. They are one of my fav species. I have four different ones with my three pikes and I don't have any probs with aggression toward the pikes or vice versa.
I just picked up a fifth (pink fenestratus from Rapps) to go in there when it grows out a little.
