Well, this is my first post. :woot:
This is my home made 4000 liters chiclid tank.
I live in Southern Norway, and im 28 years.
I also have 16 smaller tanks and a big pond in my garden. (25 000 liters)
Chiclids are my big favourite, but i also had Arrowanas and Red Tail Cats in this tank earlyer. In the pond i have Koi, and gold fish.

Lets se if i get the pictures to work.. :naughty:

Thanks.
The tank is build of wood. 2x4" frame and 22mm plywood. Its coated with 2 comp. Epoxy. But i had a bad leak, and now i have pond liner inside the tank. Glasses are 19 mm.

Ph- 6,5 Temp 26-28 Celcius.

I have three powerheads x 2500 liters an hour.
And a Camoflage pond filter.
I have too mutch partickels in the water now, so its not so clear as i want.

I have two A.Citrinellum pair with fry, and other chiclid pairs with egg or fry. So all the digging makes the water dark. :(

I now planning to get two Silwer Arrowanas, i dont think thats a problem since most of the fishes i have now are to big to be eaten. And the tank is 100 cm high, and the Arrowanas find most of its food from the surface. :thumbsup:
