hey buddy how much you pay for just your 265 gal tank, also what are your demension's because i need a 7-8' tank

I got it on Craigslist for $1000, including stand & 55 acrylic sump.

The dimensions are 74 L x30 W x28 H

I wish it had the dimensions of this 265. I dont like the height of mine.

Man they are looking good. The Argentena is gourgous. Nice photos of the stand off.:popcorn:

Thanks Man! Im afraid I am going to have to move the Argentea out of the tank soon. For some reason, even after having completely re-arranging the tank, the argentea wants the same spot that the female grammodes does and they just sit there and mess with each other all day about it...that same damn corner as in the pics.:screwy:
 
Cichlids will fight if there was two fish in a 300gal tank. Its just in there genes.

Nice fish, i have a grammode rescue, has 1/4 of a tail fin thanks to a cuban getting passed the devider during the night. It was damaged beyond repair, but its ok ill still grow him up, hes very personable for a grammode and thats why i don't have the heart to kill him. I always wanted a argentea such a nice fish!
 
watch that fighting the Gramodes will take out that Argentea they are beautiful fish mine is over 11 inches but wouldn't hurt a fly the Grammodes are nasty when trying to protect territory

Yea, I know. This weekend Ill probably be moving the Argentea into a tank with some HRP growouts. Neither one of them will relinquish the spot and they are still just at a stand off, staring each other down, unless there is food put in the tank.
