Hey all,
I'm new here but not new to "fish keeping." I used to raise African cichlids but had to sell them a while back. However my gf and I just bought our oscar tank. And of course they rule.
Here is some information everyone on here seems to want to know.
70 (us) gallon tank
gravel bottom
lots of purdy plants and ornements (very colorful since i had to stare at an empty tank for two weeks while I cycled the thing.) lol
2 back hanging duo charcoal pak filter units.
all glass tank with wood stand "that goes with my bookstand and coffee table (someone might want to know)"
OH! And there is some fish in there...
1 Albino Oscar (I picked him out, his name is Zues)
1 black tiger Oscar (gf picked him, his name is Odden, and he is the official BA of the tank)
1 albino placo (I picked him out and his name is Aries)
1 spotted placo (gf picked him, his name is Thor)
Oh no... i see the theme too... (don't judge me
)
We got them all about a month a go when they were just wee babies. Its really funny naming an inch and a half placo Thor!
On and we have 3 tinfoil barbs. They are the 3 studges since you can't tell them apart. They love to eff with the Os till they take chase. Then the barbs become my little silver blurs. They are fun to watch and they clean up after our messy oscars...
I will get some pics for everyone as soon as i can!
Favoured: 0
... then the oscars were distraut and did nothing but chase eachother. But the barbs seem to give a little life to the tank now and the Os have clamed down A LOT. But when its time to upgrade I will certainly have to splip up the placos. I'm not sure which fish are gonna get the bigger tank though.
