| Tank looks great, keep up the good work.
That Lion Fish will eat everything in the tank once it gets bigger. You need to make a decision on what you want to keep in the tank before it is too late. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)

| Oh I know! He was so small when i bought him tho - never expected him to grow so quick! My lfs warned me that i'd be taking him back. At the moment I dont think he's at a troublesome size, but as soon as i feel he is, Im going to take him out and put him in my hospital tank, let him grow a bit more, and then give him to my friend.
He has rather large puffers etc.... he'll fit in quite well there |
