Tank sizes/ goldfish

Jaws_flounder · 03-22-2009, 02:00 PM

I just want to know how big everyone's tank is and how many GF they have.

Well, we have 3 tanks total.

One is a 46 gallon saltwater tank with 2 Ocellaris Clowns, 6 line wrasse, coral beauty, molly miller blenny, yellow watchman goby paired with a tiger pistol shrimp, and various other inverts and corals.

Another is a 9 gallon saltwater cube with a mantis shrimp and a 3 stripe damsel.

And the last one, which is relevant to your question, is a 10 gallon freshwater with 2 fat and happy goldfish as well as an assortment of tetras.

I've got a 1000 Gal tank with Qty 2 gold fish. Standard, plain old and about a pound and a half each. They are big enough the 18" bass leave them alone. hehe

Oh. Just checking to see if you knew that.

Mine are feeder goldfish that survived the regime of a pet turtle

Do you have pics of this??? 1000 gallons is absolutely ginormous for a tank. Unless you're talking about an outdoor pond?

I've got 2 40g tanks side by side on a 6 foot stand. 11 turtles in ther but no GF. I've gat a 125g and a 30g that are empty at the moment. The 125 probably has a future with the turtles and I hope to have a reef tank running by this summer.

Let's just stick to GF, please. No offense.
