Just an update on my 225G. It seems a little crowded becuase of the personalities involved but it has been working great. The only problem that im noticing now is as my female Dovii gets bigger is she is starting to fight with my GT (I knew the problem was going to be with the dovii but I just didnt want it to be so, if only!). I will be selling her shortly. Anyway here is some pics and a vid of the tank

8ft long
30inch tall
18inch wide

Sorry for the not so great photography/video work. My equipment isn't the greatest.

Finally got it to work.

Turns out you have to do it in the plain text editor for it to work properly
 
Nice tank and cool fish!
I did notice in the video that the dovii is pushing around the gt a little.
Its cool to see them all getting so well you have numerous monsters in there.
Do things get a little rough when you feed?

Thanks man! Yeah thats why I will be selling her soon.. The fighting between the GT and the Dovii hasnt gotten any wores but not any better either.

As far as the aggression goes when I feed them... There seems to be no change. In fact the GT and the Dovii seem to notice each other less during feeding. I do feed them plenty and do it on two sides of the tank so no one has to cross any territories.
