180 Gallon Finally!

[kniesh]

Finally got my 180 gallon 6x2x2. I am desperate for a schooling fish now, that isn't Silver Dollars but will go nicely, and be able to bear this stocking;

1xFalse Green Terror
1x Electric Blue Jack dempsey
1x Red Shoulder Severum
1xL201 plec
1x Parrot
1x Blue acara
1x Striped Anostonus

And possibly an Oscar, not decided on that yet, but very possible.

Anyone got any suggestions? Going to pick it up on saturday, it apparently has 16+ Jewells and tons of Parrots in, plus unidentified fish too, which could be anything, gonna be taking these to the LFS tho, he is pretty good at re-homing big fish.

That must be enormous

Haven't seen it yet, just a pic. but can't wait. Nearly got an 8x2x2 with fish, stand, hood, and lights included the other day too for £245 but got outbid last minute an was in work so couldn't keep a proper eye on it, that would have been one hell of a bargain!! had to settle for this in my price range then.

I was thinking tinfoil Barbs, is it big enough for them? The guy I am gonna take all these fish to has 4 in at the moment around 6 inches I was very tempted to get, what do u think?

well i have three big redtail tinfoils two silver sharks and 2 oscars in my 150us 5ft/2ft/2ft a little cramped but nothing out of the ordinary

the tins are around 13+inches
