fishiness..

Here are our aquariums I've been meaning to post for awhile..

First, my boyfriend's old 125g tank.. (old because it is now mine! muwawah!)he had a few Oscars in it. Well, he found new homes for all but one, and I have slowly been adding things, and it is all working out great somehow. There is now one albino Oscar, three koi, one shubunkin goldfish, four clawed frogs, one footlong pleco, and one syndontis cat, as well as a livingstoni cichlid and a red tip in here. Now, before you get enraged, know that the tank is heated and the koi don't seem to mind; I feed a mix of foods, both meat and plant based, and handfeed the Oscar his predator pellets while the koi gobble the plant based flakes. And everyone gets a dose of fresh feeder fish (rosy reds) a few times a week. Oh I forgot MegaFood; she is a giant mostly-white GF that grew up in an outdoor pond; I bought her last fall when the guy was closing up the pond. She is nearly a foot long! I know this is a very odd assortment, but it has been up and running for over 2 years like this with occasional additions (no more..) and the first sign of trouble, the offender would be removed (no trouble yet.) See, Oscars are aggressive, as are livingstoni, but when they are kept singly (no others of their species) it can work.

Vampyric koi!!
