Hello!
Here's an update of my progress so far: I've finally set up my tank and has been cycling with cycled media from my friend's tank for a week now. Bought 2 nice looking driftwood which I've soaked for 2 weeks prior and most of the tannins have been removed. However when I started filling the tank with water, both driftwood floated up. So this is how my tank looks currently: I've added 1 Spotted Gar and 2 Golden Tinfoil Barbs which can be seen from the picture above. Now I'm just waiting for my driftwood to sink, and tank to fully cycle! My current plans are to have 2 spotted gars, 1 atabapo red pike, 1 catfish (of which I haven't decided, but I might go with a TSN) and maybe a motoro stingray. Once the 2 tinfoil barbs grow bigger, they would be transferred to my friend's tank. Anyone has any suggestions for medium sized catfishes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

as for tank stockings, i would personally recommend buying something which could live in from start to beginning, unless you are the type which likes to play around and experiment around on what you'd like to see in your tank. |

Hello guys!
Ever since 10th Dec, my tank has cycled fully using established media.

Currently I have: 1x 7" Spotted gar 1x 5" Spotted Gar 1x 4" Peacock Bass 1x 4" Iridescent shark 1x 3" GATF 1x 3" Irwini Catfish 3x 2" TFB 1x 3" Royal Farowella 1x 9-10" Atabapo pike cichlid (Can't really ID. I bought it from some guy online.) Anyone can help me ID my pike? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
