Trop Gars, Afro, AUL & more in 500g

[Madding]

Hey all, waiting for the 500 gallon 8' x 4' x 25" glass tank to clear up (just recently filled it over 240+ pounds of new sand). In the meantime here are some photos of the first four fish moved. The gars are 18" and 23" respectively, AUL is 20" and african arowana is 17".

Full tank shots to come as the water clears up. Also moving more of my fish in soon including 3x korean perch, golden florida gar, longnose gar, shortnose gar, spotted gar, florida gar, marbled pim catfish, marbled pim/TSN hybrid cat, black arowana, hystrix ray & more.

I really like the fish combo. I'm doing something similar with rays, cats and gars. looking for an afro aro now and perhaps some more gar. Make sure to post up some more pics when everyone gets in there and the water clears.

Thanks, a friend helped me with the stand. It is home-made, bought all the wood from Home Depot. More details on the set-up can be found here: http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=346234
