Dream tank thread

[Willbacon23]

Hi guys, I’ve instantly became addicted to this hobby and as everyone have a dream tank in mind for the near future, when I’m more accomplished in the hobby. My dream tank is probably very different to most people as it’s a 40 gallon betta community tank. I love bettas despite never owning one and would love a 40 gal red crown tail betta with a heavily planted tank with albino corys and a Bristlenose albino pleco! What’s your dream tanks?

It would probably be a really nice 4 foot tank. That was, I could have Cory's and rummy nose tetras. I would also have a lot of other fish I would love to have now. Interesting thread idea!

My dream tank is not very original I think but it's a 100 gallon tank with a group of angelfish, a big group of corydoras, a bristlenose pleco and a school of tetra that could work with angelfish.

Currently still working on my Dream Tank
66 gallon with school of Congo tetra & Albino Corys. But who knows.
I believe All of us are infected by Multiple Tank Syndrome with no cure.

 

[CassCats]

A 5-6 foot long tank with lots of corydoras and a small group of porthole catfish or a hoplo catfish or two.

 

[Crispii]

Probably a 300-gallon aquarium with an Asian Arowana and a group of Altum Angelfish.

This is definitely not realistic but I would love to put a 5000 gallon swimming pool in the ground and convert it into a pond complete with landscapes and plants. Plecos are my favorite so I'd want to see at least one in there

On a more realistic and safe note, I'm currently planning a project to go in my spare 10g with endlers, cherries, and a nerite that I'm pretty excited about. I would die to have a 30-55g though

I would want a 400 gallon with lots of angelfish, upside down catfish, a feather fin catfish, and some Albino corydoras with a nice carpet plant and a bunch more plants and driftwood

I'm currently working on my dream tank... Well, it is my "realistic" dream tank anyway. I also have an "unrealistic" dream tank that I will share with you as well...

My "realistic" dream tank is a 55 gallon, planted community tank.
It is set up already with a sand substrate and lots of driftwood. No plants or fish yet...
It is currently undergoing a fish-less Cycle (I'm on Day 10 right now, so I will be testing the water when I get home from work, to see where I am at in the Cycle)
Once the tank has fully Cycled in a few weeks, I will start adding plants and fish.

I will be adding hardy, low-med light plants so that I wont have to use a gas CO2 setup. I will just use a liquid fertilizer such as Flourish, and root tabs.

Fish I plan on stocking the tank with:
Several Silver or Marbled Hatchet fish (OR Brown Pencil Fish?)
School of Rummy nose Tetras
School of Harlequin Rasboras
School of Neon or Cardinal Tetras
a couple pairs of either Dwarf Gouramis or Bolivian Rams, or maybe Apistogramma?
School of Corydoras catfish (All from one of the following species: Julii, trilineatus, or sterbai)
School of Otocinclus
Nerite Snails

I can't wait to start adding plants and stocking the tank with fish!!!

My "unrealistic" Tank would be:
a 100 Gallon, Planted, Black Water Community Tank with driftwood/roots:
Discus or Altum Angels (or both?)
several schools of different larger species of Tetras
a couple Bristle nose Pleco (or more?)
Large School or Corydoras catfish

Anyone remember that 1000 gallon project going on a few years ago? Now that's a dream tank

Agreed!!! I am already planning out my second tank (10-20 gal planted tank, with Nano Fish and Shrimp), and my first tank (55 gal) isn't even done Cycling yet!!!

my dream tank would be any tank with a black ghost knife fish. i fell in love with them while in indonesia and have wanted them ever since

Like Ohio fish rescue!

It’s interesting corys are in everyone’s dream tank even though they’re so easy to keep for beginners
