I created a thread here , but I moved some pix around in my pb account and that left dead links, so I'm posting them here and updating there status's as well.

125 oscar tank. Running a fluval 404 and a rena xp3. Has 2 regular 24 inch fluorescent fixtures mounted in the canopy, and has 2 72in VHO actinic bulbs mounted in the canopy as well. This tank houses 3 juvie oscars, a eupterus cat, 1 common pleco amd MTS.

125 african tank. Currently running a rena xp 3 with 260w PC lighting (overkill for non planted..lol). Houses assorted africans.

75 planted community tank. Running T5-4X54w with a fluval 404 filter. Stock is black skirt tetras, 2 rope fish, 3 upside down catfish, albino-schwartz-bronze cory cats, banjo cat, blue and gold gouramis, 4 siamese algae eaters, cherry barbs, 1-angelicus loach, 1- yoyo loach, silver tetra, a sword tail, MTS, 1 angel. I'm unsure how many fish are in this tank. I haven't added any new fish in ~ a year.

55 planted tank. Houses platies, MTS, and pearl danio's. It has been set up for a little over a month. Working out some algae issues, they are improving as the tank matures. 90 percent of the plants in the tank I recieved from cbwmn :).

Not pictured are a 5 g veil tail betta tank, a 3 g crown tail betta tank, and a 37 g tank that is housing a juvie albino oscar that is either totally blind or has really bad eyesight and had to be removed from the 125 with the other oscars because of not being able to find the food properly.
 
Thanks :). Not a mansion..lol, I wish! We really just made the rooms around them. We have the 55 and 1-125 in the den and 1-125 and the 75 in the living room, and the 37 in the entry hallway. I'd love to have the space to set up the 29 and 20 i have stored in the closet, Which we may when we finish getting my office set up. But, I'll go sw, FOWLR, with one of those.
 
Pretty bettas! Is that a gold mystery snail too?
What kind of plant is that in the second tank? I have one like it, and it doesn't grow for crap...Still itty bitty. :(
 
Yeah,I have a gold mystery snail in both tanks, the other one must have been in hiding...lol.

That is a java fern. It's a rather large older one. It would look better if I had it in a tank that got regular lighting, and probably if I pruned it too. It shaded the plants in my other tanks bad so I took it out and put it in my oscar tank, then they shredded it a bit, so it ended up in the betta tank and sometimes the leaves stick out of the water.

What you can't see in the picture because of the container of fish food in the way is the baby that has taken up.. Here's a pic of it. (bottom left)

I am so envious of your oscar tank! Well all of them are amazing but I have always wanted oscars! I just don't have the space yet. Your crown tail better is beautiful my daughter had been begging me for one. I think I want one too now!
