Ok guys, I just got the best deal of a lifetime, I was helping at the LFS today, and a guy came in, and said " I have a fish tank i want to get rid of, but i will only give it away if they take the fish to," so i asked what kind of fish, and what side tank, it's a 180gal Tank stand lights EVERYTHING 6x2x2 dimensions, FREE, better yet.. it was loaded with african cichlids.. and i got a 200$ store credit for all the fish..
So he pretty much "paid" me 200$ to take this monster tank!!!!!!
Its running a AC 100 and two Rena Xp3's
Tank is in AWSOME condition, and up here he could have easily got 1000$ for the tank and full setup, and its all mine for free.. sitting beside me as we speak!:D

So,

Heres another one for all you guys that that help out,

What would YOU put in a 6x2x2 tank,
i am open to ANYTHING,

thanks :)
 
5 Apollo sharks to start with.....
 
Some people just have all the luck. I just paid $200 for an empty 180 gallon. Sheesh.
 
well stocking is what YOU like. but if it was mine, i'd go with a few bichir such as a lap, ornate, buettikoferi and delhezi and then maybe a sun cat. that'd fill out the bottom and u could get away with a couple bigger cichlids for personality in the middle and upper regions.

I wish I was that lucky
 
well, I know the stocking is with what i like,
but i asked to get some more ideas!
I have pretty much "all" the fish i really wanted to keep so far,
so if people can tell me what they like and what would work here,
it would give me a foot to stand on when starting research :)

thanks in advance
 
I would do a new world cichlid bio-type. Like Oscar, Jag, GT, JD, Con, Sev etc. Then a large plec, some loaches and stuff.
 
doesnt sound like a bad idea.. but i hate plec's
well i love my clown plec's so small! and not poop monsters. haa
 
yea well poo on you too!
