| yeah these pics are a little old, I have a pair of green terrors (male & female) which now have their own tank with hopes of breeding just for fun and also the male gt hates my oscar - Theo haha. Also my red jewels have their own tank now (I have 4) and once a pair forms (fingers crossed) I'll put the rejects back in to the community tank.
At the moment in this tank I have:
2 x Angels 2 x Silver Dollars 1 x Oscar 1 x Pleco 1 x Maingano 1 x Ghost Knife 3 x Clown Loaches 3 x Common BN | |

| Lovely BIG specimens, did you raise these fish to this size? Super happy looking ghost knife. Love the Green T, looks like it has some lovely finnage. What size is that tank, and what are you using to filter it? canister? | |

| not all of them, theo (the oscar), the jewels and the ghost knife were raised from small sizes but the rest were all the same size when i got them - the angels, clown loaches and silver dollars were all freebies from friends whose tanks they outgrew and knew I had a larger tank. The others i've picked up from breeders.
The tank is 4ft (120L) and I use a canister filter, I was pretty lucky, I got the tank, filter, substrate, cabinet and hood and a bunch of ornaments and other accessories for $300 | |

| Wow Do you have any trouble with them all, there are some very incompatible fish in there all together . I'm surprised you haven't had any fights.. | |

| Nah, they all get along pretty well, there is of course some aggression but it's pretty spread out and no one gets picked on exclusively so they all do fine, I'm moving them to a bigger tank as soon as I have the room for it but for now the green terrors and the red jewels have been moved to their own tanks to see if they'll pair up and breed. | |

| The ghost knife was about 8-10cm when I first got him, most of the fish in the tank were grown out from juvies. | |
