Vasila, why are two of your pics on their side? and why are you showing us a picture of a swimming pool?

**Fishfirst** · 02-26-2005, 11:00 AM

Well the "barrumundi tank" and "goldfish tank" look like ponds. There is no glass so I call that a pond.

Cichlid Man: Yeah but they arent ponds in the sense that they are just holes dug in the ground. They are tanks made of bessa blocks, with filtration etc. Id call that a tank. I guess we can agree to dissagree.
As for one of the shot of the pool, thats just an overall shot of where the tanks (ponds:P) are. I couldnt get that shot without the pool being in there. The two photos on their side, well i took them portrait style, as to fit everything in, sorry

.

ICP: That link says Arapaima Gigas are great jumpers too

Thats for all the kind replies fellas, but havent found any tankmates yet, that arent jumper, and are available (clown knifes are very rare over here). Maybe we should get something somewhat boring, like sooty gruntor?

I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families: Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.
