Display tank

This past winter I decided I'd set up my only display tank. I ended up with a 135 that was 7 feet long. Unfortunately, it didn't set up quite as I had envisioned it due to scratched glass. It still is a pretty awesome grow up tank. I finally decided to stock it with my Synodontis euypterus and various barbs. Unfortunately, as I netted the syno's out of my turtle tank, there were 2 Jack Dempseys stowing away in the net. I wasn't sure how I could get them out of the display tank without tearing it down completely. As they got bigger, it appeared that I had a pair which could be a real problem if they decided to spawn. I finally caught the male a couple days ago, so I don't have to worry about them spawning. Now I just have to get the female so she doesn't outgrow the barbs, and have them for lunch one day. Denny

Try that camera out and take a shot one of these days. How about that?

Could not be too hard to take a picture of a big tank like that.

Unfortunately, the glass is really scratched up. No good pictures there. Someday I may decide to replace the tank, but not now. I'll just use it for a grow-out tank for the barbs until I decide what to do. Denny
