Re: 55 gallon freshwater tank

Cool tank! I hope that down the line I can get into fish again. I still have my 29g that I'm "keeping up with." Basically, I'm just maintaining it until all of the fish die out because I just don't have the time or the money right now to continue to build it up, get new fish, etc.

The four fish still in there are a huge rainbow shark who I've had for 10.5 years, and 3 zebra loaches who I've had for about 6 years.

Re: 55 gallon freshwater tank

I will do my best to get some once I get back in town on Tuesday.

He's a tough fish. He has managed to survive ick outbreaks, extended power outages which got the tank all nasty, and he even lived in a pitcher of water with two other fish for a while after a hurricane lol.

Re: 55 gallon freshwater tank

I'll try my best to get a picture. I may look for an old picture if I can find one though. He's become more secretive as he's gotten older and hangs out in a big piece of driftwood most of the time. Very difficult to get an extended look at, much less a picture.
