Thanks, when I first saw the main driftwood I was like that is huge, but it looks so small in the tank.
I did a thread ages ago on QLDAF way back when the plinth was being built, may do a new one if I get some free time this weekend.
Was hoping to be back in the house in 2 weeks but now may be 3 due to delays :(


I have my 200 gallon in the garage of this house, and when I had a quick look the other night to take the photos of the new tank I checked the 200 gallon tank and I could not fully tell, but I think my biggest bala (approx 30cm) may have white spot :irked:
It is so bad, as I am hardly there, and the garage gets full of dust from the builders, will check it out tomorrow, hopefully he is fine he is my fav along with my pearsei who is in the same tank

As stated earlier I probably wont have it too stocked for a while
Starting stocklist will be a
-1xNTT/Thinbar 3-4 inches
-3x juvi tinfoil barbs
-1x juvi lemon fin barb
-4x bala sharks 8-12 inches
-1x pearsei 12 inches
-2x juvi L168
-3x juvi geo surp. (forgot their whole name)

Then will see from there, possibly a Qld lungfish
Will also get more of the barbs and bala's, and thinking of what bottom dwellers i want. I have about 6x 5-8 inch clown loaches but might keep them in my 200 gallon tank, all they do is just hide in a log all day and eat, they are so fat.

The barbs and bala sharks are a great idea! They'll look stunning in your tank.

Bloody chippies taking too long. There's always hold ups isn't there.
Stock list sounds pretty good.
A tank that size i'd go a few monsters in there. But some of yours will grow pretty big over time so you get to see them grow up which is fun.
You were looking at a giant gourami at some stage there weren't you.
It would be nice and warm up your way wouldn't it =)
