| Its a three month old fifty five gallon filtered by
a magnum 220 canister and a magnum 220 h.o.t. There is no live plants
just lots of driftwood. Its lit with two fifteen watt strips. I
keep the lighting low as this is primarily a catfish setup. I feed
them shrimp pellets,flakes,goldfish,white clouds,bloodworms,earth
worms,potato,crickets,and sometimes brineshrimp. The inhabitants
are: 2 pictus at three and four inches, 1 striped Raphael or striped
talking catfish at two or three inches, 1 chocolate Raphael at about
four or five inches, 1 rusty plec at six inches, 1 sailfin or gibbi
plec at about four inches, 1 regular plec or hypostomus plecostomus
at about four inches, 2 African upside down cats or synodontis nigriventris
at about two or three inches, 2 pimelodella gracillus at about two
and four inches, 1 synodontis eupterus or featherfin syno at about

four inches, 1 geophagus (not sure of the full name) at about three
and half or four inches, 1 pike cichlid at about three inches, 5
diamond tetras all about two inches, and finally 1 clown pleco at

its soon to be sand though. Decor: wood wood and more wood soon
to be even more once I change the substrate. The tank temp stay
constant at about 78 degrees f. I do water changes twice a month
at fifty percent each time. Im a catfish nut so if any one has any
question or anything be sure to let me know. |
