I dunno how many weeks it took me now to get my new tank over here, but it finally happened. Spent all day yesterday to get it set up and running ... well some hours work, some hours hypnotizing the thermometer, some hours watching fish.
It's a used ~100 gal corner tank, but only about 1 year old or so, and it came with hood, stand, eheim thermo canister filter (not a big one really but something), spare fluo tubes, some rocks, algae magnet, a big net and a dead mouse (in the stand, hahaha). So I didn't need to buy that much anymore, but I made the lfs happy nonetheless.
When I took one filter, some mangrove wood and a plant out of the old tank, all hell broke loose in there, so I really hurried to move the fish over.
It's a bit hard to take pics cause I will get reflections from everywhere, but I have to share them anyway First one is view from the left side.

Next from the right side (who would have thought). I got the Oscar, the green terror, both firemouth' and the bristlenose plecos in there now.

And another pic because it so amazed me how the firemouth's changed. That one (my latest addition) threatening the Oscar in this pic had been sitting hidden always in the other tank and would hardly eat and was the whipping boy. He now took over the biggest cave and won't take sh*t from anyone and even attacks my Oscar. The other firemouth claimed the big piece of mangrove wood on the right side.

Looks really nice with all those plants and white sand

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved

Thanks all
I probably will have to rearrange the plants a few times still until they have a place where the fish leave them alone. If they do at all, lol.
Had been dreaming of a way bigger tank but this was the max I could fit in and my last one now. Still all excited over it:woohoo:
