Freshwater Aquariums Options

[NickJames]

I got a 75 gallon with 5 pirahna. My biggest one is probably 6-8 inches or so...and I have raised them since they were less than an inch big. They are pretty damn cool...in fact...I think I am going to feed them today lol.....also...I got a 45 long with a ball python....named GoGo after that crazy B*%$* from Kill Bill., I love my pets...if you have any ?'s about tanks or filters or anything, just ask....I have been into fish for quite some time now

And anyone interested in reptiles, especially lizards or geckos can ask me anything. That's my forte.

I have a 44G hex tank with a Asian Red Tail cat that is about 10" long and 2 pleco's, couple of oversized goldfish(would have been food), and a Freshwater Eel that is about 12-14" long and is about as big as your thumb. I also have had set up a 10G tank as a breeding tank for various fish. My wife has her 10g with mollies, pleco, tetras and such. I need to get a bigger tank because the cat and eel are starting to outgrow this one. Good luck with the fish they are a lot of fun but if you get the wrong combo there will be problems. Also the only problem with having a bigger than tank volume filter is the amount of water that is flowing, other than that I say bigger the better. I currently have a Marineland Hot Magnum 250 on the 44G tank.
I also want to add that undergravel filtration is very bad. I would only use it on a one gallon bowl or smaller. Too much stuff can collect there and ruin the bio system.

So heres the tank as of today. Its a camera phone pic, and I just put those lace rocks in so the waters a bit cloudy:




No fish yet, its cycling.

That looks like a good setup. My mom has the same 26gal bow face aquarium. She's also got a 75 gal and a 10 gal.


My roommate and I just setup a 20gal a month ago.
