[Madness]

This is one guy I would love to meet someday. His tanks are exquisite. His fish are stunning. Please enjoy his video.
His name is Mel and he is my hero.

Check out his other videos on you tube. His handle is GuapolteMel. His 600 gal tank with his 27" Dovii is awesome.

And he's local. He's my inspiration for istlanum, and lyonsi. Also I try to think as my managuense pair as a mini version of his dovii tank.

What would I do with 1000g? :scratch:

I see lots and lots of guppies... :lmfao:

+1 to guppys. I think I would do a solo betta.

 

[DMD123]

I would do at least one of the giant betta and a guppy.

[DMD123]

There are giant betta! I am not pulling your leg. They are just a little bigger than the regular ones not real "giants".

 

[Anonymous]

I'm still gonna gro one to at least 2' in a 1000 gallon, because they grow to the size of there.

If I didnt like you two, me calling both of you idiots, could be taken the wrong way. : : :

I personally just want a tank big enough so that I can swim with the fishes.

I wonder how big those rocks are in his tank. I bet they are over a foot in diameter, probably weighing at least 25+ lbs ea, if not more.

2' Betta! 1,000,000 guppies! :violent: :violent: :violent:

Hey you started it with the whole dream tank! And not to correct you but 1,000,000 guppies would be overstocked if you follow the 1" per gallon rule. I would only have 1,000! :

 

[Madness]

No way. I have 1000 babies in a 75 gal. Guppies aren't much bigger. I say 1,000,000. Then add my big boys. :twisted:

 

[DMD123]

That would be a massacre!

Those guppies would kill your big boys, because they would choke to death on all those fish! :laughhard:

 

[Madness]

Im just curious how long it would take for all the guppies to disappear.

 

[DMD123]

Wow, if I had 1000g tank to work with... we can all dream cant we?

 

[Fyurae]

My dream tank is to have a tank on 3 sides of a 150 square foot room that is 3-5 feet tall. A big U-shaped one that you can stand in the middle of and have a 270 degree view of tank. And then have it be full of tropical communities and plants. Have a shoal of like 100 rasboras...

 

[Madness]

Very nice. I can picture my self sitting in a rotating recliner, watching, all day.

I think I'm a little more realistic, I just want to seal up the house and give wife and kids scuba gear.

For some of us its not a dream, just a matter of time.
