So my roommte gets the bug and says he wants to get a tank. I suggest something small and like a hardy Betta to get his feet wet with fishkeeping.

So he hunts Craigslist, Offer up, Letgo and finds this wall mounted 2gal tank and gets it for 10 bucks, tank filter light rocks....

We set it up, get some biological from one of the AC's on my 55. A week later he takes over my 20gal and goes on a tank buying spree.

Dimensions on it are 75gal 4ftx18Dx22H but it is one of those that has the back 5 inches as a built in sump. It has some bad scratches on the front panel, so will have to buff it big time before we set it up. Got the tank, stand,light 50 bucks20180416_181559.jpg

Then he finds this 125gal glass tank for 100 bucks....20180416_181642.jpg
It's drilled and needs a new bottom frame otherwise perfect. Also got 2 5gal bucks a of sand 20 rocks version sizes

Then he grabs this 40 gal bowfront with stand for 50. The guy throws in a 50 gal hex for free......It's still in the van so no picture of it.20180416_181617.jpg

I think the bug bite him and bit him hard. The 125 is going to be either a giant community tank or African peacocks and the 75 will be the other. The bowfront he wants to get a African Butterfly for it(he saw some at the Wet Spot and fell in love). 20180416_181656.jpg
 
Well it seems the still unnamed RT and Hotlipz are starting to be not so timid. Hotlipz is getting brazen at feeding time and jumping for food usually landing on Toni.

I did have to move Catness back to the 55gal. RT and Hotlipz where tag team chasing her around the tank. Nipping and such, so I moved her out for now. Grabbed all the small fish out of it first tho, Neon's and the loaches and dropped them in the 20gal in fear of Catness eating them.
