Subject: 75gal Festae Tank. 4/20/2010, 7:37 pm
Well after buying a used 75gal and what would seen to be perfect condition turn out to not be. I mean there wasn't a Scratch on the tank but leaked. So after setting it up and finding this out i had to break it down and seal it. Which i am glad i did as i painted the back Navy Blue and Added a little light Fixture inside the stand. Well here is the finished Tank. I am piggy backing the Fluval 405 atm so please excuse the Whispers EX70 in the front wont be there long.^^ [img][/img] [img][/img]

there are 22 Festae Fry in there atm, and a L333 Yellow King Tigar Pleco, and a Common Pleco. All are getting grown out. Eventually the L333 will get its own tank as i get more.
I can wait to get a True Bonded Pair i have a Pair and they lip lock every so often but sometimes the Female chases the Male away and another The Male is Dominant. I am Thinking of Spliting them in a few days Remove the Male and then reintroduce in after about a week or so. Here are the older ones. Sorry they Refused to get pictured so i did what i could. Male [img][/img] Female [/img] Both Male and Female [img][/img][img]

4 1/2-5'' Female and 5 1/2'' Male. If i were to say about 9-10months old. I got the male smaller than the Female so i split them and Grew the male on some Good food and now he is an Inch or so bigger.

Well the Festae Fry are growing up quite nice if i do say so myself. They are starting to get their Red and Black Bars. One of the 21 (yes 21 not 22 anymore since they ate one. Dang Cannibals) Is more pronounced in all its coloring (believe to be the Head Honco) Here is the Boss
