You keep talking up your tanks, they better be good! Isn't it about time to put down the pipe and post some up??? :P

Arapaima are bad ace Brad LOL real primitive

I want to do a 500g+ Amphilophus species tank, with hundreds of massive Red Devils and Midas(my super colored linebred ones, not the crappy blaah ones), Red Terrors (Festae, not Uro's) and Trimacs...Of course I would have to put a few of my Flowerhorns in there....the purists would love it LMAO

I definitely have the fish and breeding stock for it, I just need the room to house the tank itself :(

Brad, my tanks are nothing to write home about....these fish and decor do not go together, they just tear it up within minutes..... Alot of the breeder tanks are divided, and I dont clean algae on breeder tanks ;)

Now the fish...thats another story, I am proud as hell of them, and they make Jaws drop ;)

Just for you Sad Brad, I will put up a sample...... but I just dont know where to start, or which ones to post..I could probably fill a 30 page thread just with my pics, and still feel like I left some out :(

I hear you...its the same with ball pythons...some fish in captivity don't necessarily need us to try and make an attempt at making a habitat out of plastic decor for them...and a utilitarian type setup works well. The fish species you mentioned could probably care less if they have some stupid fake plants in the tank with them or not...

You probably want to do something like this

I wish I couldve edited my last post to include this :(

Ok Brad...I figure that the easiest way to do this, is a little bit at a time, one kind of fish at a time LOL

We will start off with my first Flowerhorn, Duke....13" long, over 5" high and almost 3" thick of pure rage and beauty

I like to make videos too, this one is my favourite.....

Here's what happens when silver dollars try to get smart and steal a FH's last pellet when he's still hungry, and looking for more LOL
I love it when he stops on a dime, grabs his food, and goes right back to raging LOL

Of course the music rocks, great synching with his actions

You should show that FH to some of those hybrid haters...thats one of the best FH's I've ever seen.

How have those silver dollars even survived with him in there?

Brad, that video is from almost 2 years ago....all six of them are still in perfect health, now living with a breeding pair of a 13" male Red Devil and an 8" female festae (Red Terror)...Those Silvers are just too darned fast and nimble for these behemoths

Thanks for the props on the FH, I love him too, even though he's "low grade"

Whats up next Brad? Devils? or a mixed bag?

How about some of those special devils you were talking about?

Thanks for hijacking my thread by the way...maybe if I cry about it, we can split it up! ;) :P
