New set up in an old tank

Dwarfs · Jan 9, 2005

I took apart my 55g community a month or 2 ago just to make room for my 3 Ctenopoma acutirostre

The tank now has 6 juvinile rainbow cichlids(I'm only keeping 2-3), a Juvinile Uaru, 3 Ctenopoma acutirostre, a pearl gourami (I'm moving him soon) a clown pleco, a rubbernose pleco, and a Featherfin syno.

When the uaru gets larger I will rearange my stock lists to have him and my severum in one 55g, and I'll give some rainbows away -_-

Anyway, onto the pics!

The Uaru and his gang

The glass looks badb because of the flash and some lazy otos who, as of yesterday, have been evicted from the tank :sly:

The rainbows move in a pack

EDIT: LOOK! A Leopard ctenopoma!

Dwarfs · Jan 9, 2005

That's his pot. In a few months he'll have a harder time squeezing in there :lol:

There are 2 ctenopoma, 2 rainbows, and an annoying pearl gourami in this shot, and they're all eating flakes!

Dwarfs · Jan 9, 2005

I think there are 6 rainbows, the uaru, PG, and a Ctenopoma in this pic

(Still eating the flakes)

The Uaru and fat/abnormally large rainbow are camera hogs if you haven't noticed :whistle:

NO, NOT MY PLANTS! :crazy:

He likes wisteria and java moss

There is shrimp falling from the sky

The leaf fish is going in the 55g when I have more plants and a guppy colony ready for him

Here he is just sitting there, as usual

Here is our (My dad's originally) clown pleco, he/she is going on 8 years old and now this 55g is it's retirement home. I leave algae duties to my little rubbernose pleco, the clown can just sit around hiding from me all day, no worries

That's all, I hope it wasn't too agonizing to look through

Wow the clown plec is old how big is it?

Dwarfs · Jan 9, 2005

I resent the 'annoying pearl gourami' comment

He liked him when I first got it for him last March , he has grown well , and no where near as shy as he was .

That guy will going to a 30 gal in Dwarfs little brothers room .

If we don't move him he'll be shy in a few months again when the other guys grow up a bit .

That rubber nose will perform miracles on the glass and plants :wub:

, I've seen his work in the 20 long :lol:

.

And that peckoltia owes me absolutely nothing , he's had more tank mates in the last 7 + years , then I'd under ware :lol:

. My younger son was 2 years old , and helped pick the" pickle eater "out at the shop :lol:

.

the funny thing is , he will eat cucumber :nod:
