From Silverdale! Hi!

[Tank]

Hi my name is Joel (I can't believe this screen name was available lol) I had a few goldfish tanks for a million years and about 4 months ago started housing mostly tiny cichlids (that have been growing kind of quick) and an arowana. I've known about the forum for a little while one of the staff from Farmland told me about it I just didn't really know what to say or anything so I figured I'd just register and post. I have a 55 gallon tank and a 30 gallon tank I know the 55 is overstocked and I'm working on cleaning out and resealing a 125 gallon that's currently in my garage hopefully within the next two weeks, I also know that won't be enough for the fish I'm currently holding full grown and plan to get more room for them a little down the line (Haha just to get that out of the way before someone else mentions it)

55 gal:
6-7in Silver Arowana I'm not sure exactly how long it is haha I don't like taking him out of the water, it makes me feel bad. Lol

All about 3in
Flowerhorn
Texas Cichlid
Red Texas Cichlid
Dovii
Jaguar
Green Terror
Gold Severum

All about 2.5in
Jack Dempsey
Oscar
Firemouth
Clown Pleco

30 gal: all 2in and under
Vieja Argentea
Flowerhorn (currently looking to rehome *hint**hint* lol)
Paratilapia Bleekeri
Cuban Cichlid
Jewel Cichlid
Clown Pleco

Welcome, no pictures?

Haha I was workin on it. I'd like to apologize in advance for not having a good camera, not being good at taking pictures of them lol aaaaand the poop particles in the water because I just rinsed my filter cartridges. Also for the Jaguar actually having a poop and yeah I know my firemouth is beat up atm and my oscar doesn't want to make an appearance because he knows I already fed them.

Wow! You've got a nice collection. Time to open up a dedicated fish room. Haha

Hey Joel! So nice to see you on here! Welcome to fishbox!! Those are some sweet pics of your fish! Glad I could get you to join, and finally see some pictures of your awesome fish!

 

[Tank]

^^^Lol hey there he is! Hey Angelo! Thanks! Yeah I finally made it haha! Also it looks like it didn't post the picture of my FM like I thought so here it is, like I said though I know he is pretty beat up he has already been placed in a nursery tank so he can heal.

 

[Tank]

Haha Lloyd everyone keeps telling me if I plan for it or not that a fish room is going to happen and so far from what I can tell it's definitely true I started with a 30 gal and went to 50 and said that was it and before I knew it I already bought and made a stand for a 125 gal, and I have a feeling it wont stop here. Lol

And so, the MTS (Multiple Tank Syndrome) begins.
Pretty soon, you'll be putting tanks all around the house. It's bound to happen!
Looks like your FM will recover well!

What is the fish in the 7th picture? Facing the camera, and black with blue speckles? It's stunning, and I've never seen cichlids with that pattern before.

Yay for more clown pleco people! They don't seem to be that popular, but I have a little school that I really enjoy.

That's my Jack Dempsey! All my fish are the darker colored versions of themselves because my 55 gallon has dark (black) substrate, going to change it when I put them in the 125 I'm thinking of mixing the black in with white gravel the mixture being more white dominant. Something like this to try and get their colors to pop a little more I hope it works.
