| Re: Saltwater Cool tank. Someday I might try my hand at a salt tank, but I'm content with our freshwater tanks for now. We have a 30 with a tiger oscar who's turned into a wuss, he keeps the guppies around as buddies now. He got really sick at the beginning of the year and after he recovered he's a lot different. Last week we decided to shake things up a bit and introduced a blue Texas cichlid. The colors on the oscar really flared up, it pissed him off, but within a few hours the Texas was kicking the oscar's tail and we had to go buy a screen to put between them to see if they can come to terms. We'll leave that in place for a few more days until we can supervise them for awhile after we take it out.
We also have a couple of small guppy tanks, but the fun part was what we found last week at an estate sale. We picked up a 55 gallon setup, complete with filters, stand, etc, and a tank full of cichlids and other stuff. It's a great community tank, very active. There's well over $200 worth of fish alone, we paid $130 for everything. I'll tell you, moving that and getting it set up again took a few hours out of our weekend. |
