Wifey would kill me if I even bought one more tank home.

Very nice and clean looking setup. I know you put a lot of work into creating that fish room.

Thanks Ken. The stand with the meter-tank I imported from Germany.
A shame the lowest shelf just isn't high enough for another two tanks !!!

LordBarron7692 I bet my fish history is similar to others. I have been fascinated with fish keeping since I was a teenager. Then in my 30's I had a pretty large setup but sold everything after a few years and didn't have any fish for a long time. Now I am back at it and this time I have a large building to use and I am having a ball with it. So there is always the future and maybe a property with a separate building or a large garage to create an awesome fish room. I think once someone has an interest in fish that it doesn't go away even if it is years between having fish. In the meantime a house with the maximum allowed aquariums is a great way of life!

I have bread Angels, Jewels, Kribs, Rams, and a few others. My Brasiliensis are a few years old now and I don't let them breed anymore. The pair you got from Morph. came from my pair. The terror I have thought about but never have had them.

The green terrors turned out to be pretty easy to breed and more mild mannered than I expected. Once I isolated a pair, the pair got along beautifully. They were only aggressive in a territorial manner and of course being protective of their spawn.

You may talk me in to terrors.

I have 2 pairs for breeding and I have a few other unpaired green terrors. I might have another pairing soon. If I get another pairing I will sell them to you if you are interested. I have some fry that are getting pretty big too so I will definitely have more breeding pairs in the future. I have learned that with green terrors like some other cichlids, there will be only one dominant male in a group and he will be the only one displaying strong colors. But as soon as you remove that dominant male, another male starts coloring up. Very interesting!

Ken, Thank you.
If I do try terrors. I would want to grow them out in my tank. But for now I have some fish that need new homes. Befor I can have new fish.

Thanks Ptran! I have 9 frontosa but I am thinking about selling them. They have not spawned yet. I think they are too young. The largest one is 4.75 inches. If anybody is interested I will sell them.

They are still a long way to breeding. 3-5 years from 1"

Thanks Ptran, I was thinking it might be a long time for them to breed.

Great setup! It makes me miss my home town of St. Louis. We all had basements and unlimited space for a multitude of aquariums. Now as I understand here in Texas, the basement is in the attic...for hot water heaters, AC units and limited storage.
