Are the plants real? My green texas wont leave them alone?

 

[Ian14]

Plants are real. He's only been in the tank not even a week but I haven't noticed anything

Tanks overstocked but besides that it looks beautiful! I wish I had a 125 gallon...

Good looking tank! Would love to see some up close of your Jack. I cant wait until mine get that big.

I should have some pics of the jack on my profile on here. I'm kind of worried about feeding my tire track eel and rope fish. the eel is about 5-6 inches and the rope fish about 8-10. been feedering them shrimp pellets but I read they like live foods. haven't seen them eat yet. I was thinking of maybe just getting a dozen small feeder fish and just sticking them in the tank. anyone see a problem in that?

Love it, what kind of sand did you use ?? I'm really debating on using black

 

[Ian14]

Thanks, I got the black sand from petco
