Pics & vids of 3 of my tanks - Oscars, Angels, & Community

[ScorpiosWife]

Well, I was going to put these in my Angel thread, but when I went to Photobucket I noticed some more I meant to post a couple of weeks ago. So, here are 3 of my tanks, as stated. Oscar tank, Angel tank & the Community tank. Don't ask me how many fish are in the community tank. I lost count at 40 but with regular water changes (25% weekly) everything seems to be doing just fine.

Sorry the community tank video is so long. I was trying to get the male guppies & there's a lot of them! A lot of their fins were torn up when I got them about 2 weeks ago. The LFS doesn't normally sell them (he's mostly SW). Someone brought them in and he had them in a tank with fish that didn't care for them much, so I bought almost all he had for 75 cents each. I believe there were 24 total, if memory serves me right. I will be setting up another 55g in my office just for the guppies very soon.

Fat Girl is a camera hog. LOVES to get right in front of me when I'm taking pictures in her tank. Not a bad picture for an iPhone.

Thanks. It's funny to watch the male blood parrot push them if they get too close to where they're playing house. The O's don't even pay it any mind and the parrot is so serious! Looks like a scooter running into the side of a Mac truck, lol.

Am I the only one who can't see my dawg-gone videos? Grrr. When I click play they're just black but if I click to go to YouTube to watch them, they're there. Por que?!?

I could see the video. the Angels look good. the small one is a little stunted but looks healthy. good job!

[ScorpiosWife]

Thanks, Troy. He's always been tiny, he was younger than the rest if I remember correctly. He eats fine he just doesn't seem to grow, lol.

So, today was fun. I pulled everything & everyone out of the 55g community tank and remodeled. This was my end result. Not quite happy with it yet and I'm open to suggestions. I just wanted to pull the substrate to make it easier to clean.

I like how you ran the airlines through the bottom of the pots. Looks pretty cool! I might add a couple of pieces of driftwood, but I am also a a driftwood freak. lol

Thank you, Brandon. It was the only way I was sure to secure them, lol. I'm not sure I like the driftwood across the tops of the pots. Definitely moving things around again when I figure out what else I wanna do.
