This is based on a suggestion from another boardmember in a previous post (Really long drawn out one.)


If you had a 500 Gallon tank, what would your ultimate fantasy be with it? What fish? Substrate, toys, bells and whistles??

at my lfs's 500g there's a huge red tail catfish, clown knife, giant gourami, black pacu, and some really big kois. all these fish are huge.

if i had one i'd get a tiger shovelnose catfish, alligator gar, large peacock bass, a pacu, and an arapaima. (maybe a snakehead if possible, hehe) i would also throw in a million feeders and probably the spoiled brats that live down the street.

hehehe. eco said mine(great minds think alike:D:p)...except id fill my tank completely and have humongous stumps of driftwood...so id probably never get to see my clowns hehe. id also try breeding them, as hard as that may be, if i had a tank that big.

and i could fill my other tank with various schools of other loaches.:D

a single dwarf puffer- it would be like "where's Waldo" but with a small fish.

Wait I can do better- I mentioned on the other thread I must eventually have a fire eel and some sort of giant catfish- barring that maybe I would have a royal pleco and several big schools of tiny fish- like harlequins and those pretty gold tetras, congo tetras and brigettte rasboras- the hardest thing would be choosing.

CORIES MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! TONS OF CORIES!!!
No, really though, ild want a cichlid tank with either several large cichlids like oscars, jacks, and redevils, or lots of smaller cichlids like firemouths convicts, stuff like that, the bottom would be littered with alot of rocks and caves for them to hide and itd be so big each pair could esablish it's own terriorty*celebrate *laughingc
