thats bloody awsome!!! you should name a fish after him for sure.
oh and speaking of fish. just cause you got a big tank. are you going to put already grown fish? or are you goin to start off with smaller baby size fish and grow them your self?
I think growing fish would be real cool. plus it will save on feeding expense while u recooperate what you spent already.
I was going to post a thread a while ago about this subject. I'm putting small arowanas in and small oscars. I always wondered why people would pay high prices for large fish, since raising them from babies is half the fun of it! I've never bought a big fish before, and don't intend to now. I have one 8" arowana, one 10" CK and a 6" oscar to start. Once I'm sure everything is running good, I'll grow out 4 more new little arowanas to about 8". Not 100% on the rest of the stocking list. It'll look pretty funny with all that water and 10 or so little fish, but that'll change in a year. Yeah, what I spent already, umm. I lost track. it's in the $3k range, and I think getting closer to 4. I'm sure after fish etc. I'll be at 6k or so.
Whatever, It's what I love...
