| Today we finished our new 6 foot River tank System. It will be a Native Fish Tank. I called some of the fish , "Black Nosed Creek Chubs" , but they are really Black Nosed Dace ! Can't wait to go down to Tobacco Creek and net some more fishes !!! Click on the picture to start the video.  |

Favorite Fish:: abn plecos right now. But it changes so much, I see a new fish and want to keep it, too. That's how I got so many tanks. I really want some rams and loaches now.

| oooh very nice. I've always wanted to do a stream/river tank, extra extra long tank.
how have your fish acclimated from wild food sources to captive-type food sources? |

They have transitioned nicely ! They now eat flake foods and smallish shrimp pellets. |
