180 Gallon Tank

[sawickib]

It is a rare find indeed

It just shows how adaptable these Lil guys are though

Yea, they are quite incredible , i guess they have to be for the usual conditions they get thrown into.

NO NOT THE BABY GAR

sweet plecos dough

now all you need is a african butterflyfish

Or a Solar Catfish (their fish native to my country, thailand)

A motoro stingray will be nice
And a Silver Arowana!
(yes, i am listing my favorite tropical fish)

A Oscar maybe

A new Spotted Gar 

A Tigrinus Catfish

Thanks, its not the end of the world though, sad but not the end.
 
Sorry to tell you this but an african butterfly would get little or no food in my tanks, the solar catfish is a coldwater fish i believe, a motro sting ray requires little or no decoration and IMO a larger tank than 180 gallons, the silver aro also gets way to big for my tank, oscar poop a lot and would be very aggressive with my docile inhabitants, i think i have enough gars lol and tigrinus catfish are monsters also believe it or not i ran out of money on the L25 i bought haha

Wow your tank is a very unique but i thought solar catfish are thai/indian fish its a warm water and its max size is 10 inches and it only eats things that fit in its mouth

yea oscars are messy eaters

dont you like oddballs like the Tigrinus cat? oh or is it because your tank is too small? they grow to 2 feet and like decorated tanks. they also only eat things that fit in their mouth. i am not used to expressions like IMO or L25 i only know the BGK ( black ghost knife)

plz familiarize me with the expressions

for some reason i cant see your photos

Angels can live with gars and eels? wont it get rekt by the gar? or eaten by an eel?

Sun catfish get 18" and do prefer colder water than most tropical fish, 74-77 degrees, never really a fan anyway.
 
I may get a tigrinus in my 260 gallon but not in my 180 gallon for sure. IMO means in my opinion and L25 is the species of catfish/pleco at the top of the page, plecos can ommonly be identified by and L followed by 2-3 numbers.
 
Cant see which photos?
 
If the angels are large enough i have found that they arent threaten by any of my predators just because they are so tall.

Death count from my ignorance is high I over flooded the tank after i forgot i was performing a water change while watching a movie in the other room. Now i may even have to uproot my carpet but im not sure at this point and time.

 

 

 
Not sure what caused the deaths, i suspect stress from a close to 100% water change and no filtration for 7 hours, another form of my ignorance. Perhaps if i just had a filter running last night they may have survived. I had 7 bichirs die while my one weeksii survived, i had 2 nandus nandus one died, 4 red head tapajo (the most healthiest alpha died), i had 4 winemilleri 3 died, 2 angels both died, dead severum, and my L25 and 15" common pleco survived. :RIP:

just curious, why did you stop filtering the water?

I had the filter off because i couldnt turn the power back on for my room, and i didnt even think of getting an expansion cord for one of the filters at the time, it was a mistake that may have cost me all of those fish.

So a little update, everyone who survived that night are still going just like before, it was a sad event but the past is the past. So heres my nandus nandus and L25 now no photos of the others sorry.

 
I love this guy so much, every time he comes out its a wonder to see haha

Hope your tank gets back to its former glory soon, really enjoyed those pics. That was certainly some fishkeeping skill to have all those good and going for a while.
