New fish room
« on: December 01, 2011, 05:05:48 AM »
     Finally, Ive gotten it all together and set the fish room up in my house.    3 tanks so far.    I already had  the 150 Gallon tank.   I just purchased a 90 Gallon tank about a month ago, which explains my long layoff from posting in awhilw, LOL.   I also have a small 30 Gallon, to make 3 tanks so far.   Now I need to work some oT  at work, to set up the other 3 tanks that will fit in there.   I also need to get a new Camera, LOL.   


   My Question is,  I know what Im putting in all the other tanks and the future tanks, but Im having a small problem with ideas for the 30 Gallon small tank  (just like a small rectangle box, LOL) .  Right now, all I have in there is a Black Moor Goldfish, Golden Weather Loach, and small spotted Raphael Cat, until I come up with better ideas.   Any suggetions will be helpful and Ill post alot of pictures, as soon as I get the cam. 

   If you look under my name at the side, you can see what I have in the 90 and 150,  so far.   Ive been wanting to do this for years, but you know how it goes. Family things keep happening and life gets in the way, but now. I finally did it.   Just wanted to share this with all of you fish lovers.  Any suf=ggestions for the small 30 Gallon?     Thanks.  O0 ;D :beer:

Congrats!!  I bet it's all looking good O0

My suggestion for your 30 was to get Dwarf puffers but since you already have fish in there that won't work.

Awesome, good work on getting the room going Dan  :beer: :beer:

In 30 gal tank at my place I'd breed convicts but I'm biased 'cause I love the interest of them, would need fish in other tanks to offload the youngsters too though.

Well done mate  O0
Don't know what to suggest for the 30gal  :-\   Um, Random thought, A pair of Rams of whatever type and a nice shoal of neons.

Thanks everyone.   Right now, until something grabs me, and then I have to have it, Ill work around whats in there.  LOL.  You know , once an urge hits you, you must have certain fish.   I got  3 dwarf Gouramis, a Black Moor, Golden Weather Loach and a spotted raphael Cat and it is heated so.  I may add a pair of Rams, one German and one Electric Blue and see what happens.  Love the Cardinal Tetras/Neons Idea and I love these emperor and columbian tetras too.  This might as well be my community tank, and Ill work on adding the other 3 tanks and go with more fun stuff, LOL.  Thanks guys!  O0 :beer:

Eventually, one of these days, Ill get a camera, LOL.   Having problems with the 90 gallon right now.  Lost all my Angels.   :-\. Its strange, because its the newest tank.  Just got it 2 months ago.  Checked the PH and its at 6.8 and the ammonia level is  a tad less than 0.25.   I dont get it   I have one of those tester kits that basically tests everything, and all levels are what they are suppose to be.   Its strange, but whenevr I get Angels, I always have trouble at 1st, before it starts working.  Very frustrating, though, as I lost them all in a span of a week.  Oh well.  Back to the drawling board.  :hit:
