Pulsate to the stereo. :)

Here are my updated pics:

See the little Oscar in the upper left? I also changed out the white 1" return and replaced it with a 1 1/2" return painted blue (upper right). Fish are much happier with a more gentle flow. I also removed the opera house some of the plants and moved the large driftwood further to the back as too many fish were congregating behind it.


Bad tank shot with the flash but the only one I could get with the Albino Tiger Oscar up front so far.




Future Feeder Barbs?

Great looking tank. I'd love to know how your regulate your lights that way. I just have on or off and I have it on a timer that turns it on or off automatically for me based on time of day but you different light levels on different times throughout the day.

great tank, the decore aint to my choide, I'm move a river stones and bogwood person.

But no-one seems to have pointed out on major factor, most the stocking in that tank is gonna be oscar food in around 6-7 months time...

hope you plan to move them out :( by them I mean the barbs, the shark, the pictus... an 18" oscar will make short work of a 6" fish.

I have friend who said "naa! wont happen" and then thier oscar ate their 7" ornate polypterus like a peice of spaghetti :(
