My tanks

Right now I have 3 tanks; 2 29g and a 10g. I just got the second 29g tank the other day. I got it from a friend of mine that I used to work with. When he told me about it he said it was a 40g. It had 2 bala sharks (9" each), an Iridescent Shark (4 1/2"), 3 Rosy barbs (3" each) 3 tiger barbs (2 1/2" each), some kind of pleco (3 1/2") and a head and tail light tetra (1"). So it was pretty overstocked. I found a pet store that would take everything except the pleco and tiger barbs. I put the tiger barbs in my other 29g with 8 other tigers and a red tailed shark. The pleco I put in my 10g with a male guppy and about 11 fry.

The new tank after I got it home. It was a complete mess. I don't think this guy ever cleaned the tank. It had and in tank filter, a Marineland Aqua Tech HOB filter and an undergravel filter. The filter media in the HOB and in tank filter was disgusting. I got it pretty clean just so that the fish would have a clean home for a couple days before I took them to the LFS.

How the tank looks now. I can't put any fish in it right now because I need to get a new heater and since I cleaned everything, I need to let it cycle.

Lower right:
My other 29g with the 11 tiger barbs and 1 red tailed shark. I know that it is overstocked right now, but there are 2 filters running on it and eventually the shark will prolly end up in the other 29g with some new roomates.
