My tank has finally arrived
- Thread starter professor_rob
- Start date
Thanks the lemon barb is really growing fast. I do not think the lungfish will eat any fish, he is so slow and he is not aggressive at all.
Thanks for the tip about the dats I will keep an eye out. Would love a Wide bar, but doubt will ever find one.
OK, I might put up some more photos on the weekend.
Here is a quick video i took a while ago, I cannot believe how much bigger the barbs are now. They grow so quick

Quick update of the tank for anyone interested.
-The lung fish has grown quite a bit, and is very active.
-The lemon barb has grown a lot, growing same speed as the tinfoil barbs.
-The NTT datnoid has not grown much at all
. Though he is taking prepared foods (mainly 'Dried Tiny Shrimp'). The NTT is very active, never hiding anymore and always begging for food and always looks stable........very stable.....so hurry up and grow!!!
-Not much change with the rest of the fish, but bought a few more bala's, and filament barbs, who are growing and starting to look nice.
Have had a few issues with the main sump pump. It has had to be replaced twice, now using a completely different pump, and is running good. (hence the tank not looking its best due to the sump being only on for a few days after being off-line for about a week waiting for new pump)
Thanks guys!

Needs more Geos imo haha, a group of those always looks nice...I like the big pearsi as a focus point of the tank, everything else is so small in there! I'm personally not a fan of tinfoils and balas, but when those get big, It will definitly look nice... How are those monos you have growing out? Man, if I had that tank, expect to see some bichirs for sure haha...but with those CLs and other tiny fish....a 20"+ poly probably wouldn't be the best, but maybe you could try a delhizi or two? or maybe even a few senegals? Of course, Ive never had a lungfish, but if they get along fine with bichirs, why not?
