  • 125G Amazon Rain Forest Tank w/video

    i finally figured out what i really want to do with my 125g.
    and that is make it a an Amazon Rainforest Tank.
    i got my inspiration from one of the tanks at the new Aquatic World on Jones rd.
    my tank has 2x Poweful 400+gph powerhead pumps at each end spraying a stream of water directly into the glass tops, which disperses and rains down like rain fall onto the top of the water.
    i plan on stocking it with large oddballs from the amazon basin,

    so far i just have a Silver Arowana, but this sunday i am picking up 3 Red Hook Silver Dollars
    and i plan on adding a banded leporinus, a FlagTail Prochileus(sp?)
    and several bottom feeders found in the amazon basin.

    Now with video
    enjoy 8)

    FRENCH FRY!!!

    Fish are people too, they just have gills.

          banded leporinus may drive your other fish nuts, they are fin nippers.
          PLECOS SUCK!

                  well, i decided to turn the flow back the way it was :(
                  the tank is in my room, so its anything but practical
                  i thought about timers, but still, its so f-ing annoying

                  oh well
                  i still plan on getting the same fish
                  except for the banded leporinus

                  i am going to try and get a Hoplarchus Psittacus(aka the TRUE Parrot Cichlid) 8)

                    Timer would be really cool. Making it "rain" for like an hour or two a day.
                    I ate my fish that died.
