EowynJane Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) I was given a tank the other day, it measures 12 1/2" wide, 16 1/2" tall and a whopping 29 3/4" long to the outside of the glass. If that's the correct way to measure it works out to slightly over 26 gallons. Now what to do with it??? I already have Endlers w/ shrimp, dwarf puffers w/ a BN and lab and aceii w/ a BN. I'm looking for suggestions and I'm open to fish, reptiles and all sorts of aquatic and semi aquitic pets. I'd love to have a crayfish or mud skippers or a lizard if the tank is big enough... anything but snakes or spiders. Suggestions? (I'm sticking with freshwater btw..)

Wackinator Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Like the first idea that was suggested but if not then a shell dweller colony? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vince0 Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Like the first idea that was suggested but if not then a shell dweller colony? you could also add julidochromis transcriptus too, if you were to add a rockpile... seriously though, shellies are awesome, my n. brevis tank still captivates me on a daily basis!

Vitaminz Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Come over to the SALT SIDE... it is much better over here!! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvianAquatics Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 No come over to the HEAVILY planted tank side and get a bit of greenery in your room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EowynJane Posted October 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 LoL - good ideas I like the thought of the shellies though I'm not 100% sure I'm even going to go with fish. Either way I am sticking to the fresh water side for sure... I have to keep this relatively low cost and I don't have any salt stuff at all. All of my tanks are planted... I love my plants. My endler tank is an absolute jungle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixn7g Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Do a nice community tank? Or maybe that blur ram tank, or some threadfin rainbows...... crayfish would fit....... urhmmm.... you could even do a brackish green spotted puffer, although I would only suggest one in a tank that size.....
