Well my friends went into the tank today after I drained it down to about 20" of water
and they caught, measured and transferred to the 52,000:
2 Paratilapia aurem the smaller was 20"
the larger was 23" (1" longer than my old Parachromis dovii)
2 Pterodoras granulosus the smaller was 25 3/4"
the larger was 33" (and weighed more than 30lbs)
2 Osteoglossum bicirrhosum (South American Silver Arowana) the smaller was 36"
the larger was 38 1/2"
2 Notopterus chitala (clown knife) the smaller was 26"
the larger was 27"
1 Scleropages formosus (red tail golden asian arowana) *proposed to be changed to Scleropages aureus 28"
1 Scleropages formosus (green) * also called the Silver asian. 26"
1 Lepisosteus oculatus 34 1/2"
1 Hemibagrus wyckii 24 1/2"
As well they caught 9 Amphilophus citrinellus ranging in size from 6" to 12" and 1 Hemibagrus nemurus (Gold) all of which were placed in a 180g holding tank.
This reduced the fish (over 20") in the 15,000 that were possibly killing and eating the under 8" plecos that are needed to keep the glass clean.
So far the Wallago has not been seen to eat any of them in the 52,000.
After the fish were caught I refilled the 15,000 t within 15" from the top in a matter of 3 hours by sending the water required from the 52,000 and now am refilling the 52,000.
I want to thank my friends who helped me Terry Clements, Noel Nathaniel, Simon Luffman, Anthony McAslin, Jeff Mountjoy, Richard and Nikki Coffron.
