Default New Fish Tank

Well, after the move to Tampa, unfortunately, my cichlids died The trip was not-so friendly and I lost 4 cichlids measuring 4-5 inches each.

Anyway, when we got here, we decided we wanted a bigger tank...so here it is.



In it are 4 cichlids (1 jack dempsey, 1 tiger oscar, 1 convict, 1 jewel) and 1 pleco. 55 gal tank

when we buy a house this year, I'm debating building a 200+ gallon tank into a wall, but we'll see. Always wanted to have a huge tank

My friend's aunt had a 200gal tank as a headboard built into the wall with her bed directly below it. I wouldn't trust it but it was an amazing tank.

My dad has a tank that's like 9 feet long. It's ridiculous. Yours is good-sized though. :thumbup:

i've read that ones you build (if you take your time) are stronger than ones you buy. I love that idea tho....i'll have to remember.
