Jack dempsey

[haleybeth30]

this is my juvie jd, I feed him nls 1 mm pellets once a day, I'd say he's about 2.5 in.

If you don't mind me asking what are those tubes are they store bought or homemade?

 

[Swalker]

Haleybeth30 the reason I'm asking is I've tried pvc and I don't like the look but whatever you are using from what I can see looks pretty cool

 

[mikem691]

It looks like the black pvc for the gutter extensions but i could be wrong

 

[Swalker]

Yea that's what I was thinking but I want to be sure lol the white PVC plumbers use I don't like but the black doesn't look to bad

 

[haleybeth30]

yeah, it is plastic, for ourside drainage, my fiance got it at home depot. we tried to dress it up with rocks/plants moss would look cool on it in a planted tank

 

[Swalker]

I like the look so what fish do you have in it I think I'm going to use you and you're fiancée idea

5x5 you're tank is awesome

5x5 you're tank is awesome

Thanks. I'll take the compliment even though I think about redoing it about twice a day.

Are you referring to this one?

 

[Swalker]

Yeah that one

I want a bigger tank but can't afford it right now but I like my 80 gallon

 

[haleybeth30]

I have a lot of cichlids =) 1. malawi 2. sevs and baby oscar 3. jack dempsey, fm, jewel, 2 convicts (I'm cycling a 30 g for my cons, they are feuding big time, though, may have to move 1 con and jewel or 1 con and fm...?)

That's a good start. You can do more than half the cool NW's in an 80g.

 

[haleybeth30]

I like both of your tanks, very nice. I can't wait until my o and fm get that big =)

 

[haleybeth30]

5x5 how many sevs can go in the 125 with my o and fm? I know I have to thin the heard, but having trouble deciding. I have 2 gold 2 in. and 2 green 1.5 in. then I am for sure keeping female 5 in., Circe =) sorry to get off topic

oh and for the record my peacocks/hap getting a 125 of their own soon, so I can pick out couple more =) then my jd gets the 75g they're in

 

[Swalker]

You also have some awesome tanks tomorrow im going to make some additions and subtract ions to this tank I have another with 2 black and white mollies and 2 more jacks they're just babies though

 

[Swalker]

Here's my new look for now

 

[haleybeth30]
