Kellyjhw Big Fish My bubble... Posts: 405 Kudos: 217 Votes: 471 Registered: 22-Nov-2008 | Okay, I've been looking through some books. Not that all of this fish are compatible but... I would love to have a 200 gallon native fresh water tank. Pumpkinseed, bullhead, perch, and at least one small pike. OR... redside daces, rainbow darters, golden shiners, sculpins and rainbow smelts to capacity. TTFN --->Ta-Ta-For-Now Kelly ;o} |

A tank with those and some leopoldi rays would make me quite the happy camper. The stocking alone would set me back thousands, as would the huge aquarium they would require! -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian. |

Shinigami Ichthyophile Catfish/Oddball Fan Posts: 9962 Kudos: 2915 Registered: 22-Feb-2001 | 8" for $150? That sounds like a good deal, actually... The ones online are often at least like $125, even for just a little 3-4" fish! Although it's not like I'm in the market for them so I haven't really been following their prices. I'm jealous 'cuz I've never seen them in person more than once, and that one time was at a specialty fish store I visited while travelling so it's not even nearby! -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian. |
