My 100 gal. oscar tank. It has 2 oscars, 1 jack dempsey, and 1 very large common pleco {} This is one of my multies in my shellie tank. They are so cool. I call them my mini bulldozers. {} This is one of my yo yo loaches. I have 4 of them in my 20 gal. community tank. {} This is another picture of my Jack Dempsey in the 100 gal. tank. {}
OK, how the do you do a water change for a 100 gallon? good pics though. wish I could get them looking like that
Thanks everybody! I love my fishies! Fletch, I use a python to clean my tanks. I wouldn't have my tanks long if I had to do water changes with a bucket!
Awesome pics Gunnie! I also use the python vac. Great product and highly recommended because it makes doing water changes a breeze.
Have you SEEN this pic? You'd tink they'd have been able to take a new pic sometime in the last 20 years! {}
This is the common pleco in the 100 gal. tank: {} And this is my snowball pleco (LDA33) in my 55 gal. tank: {}
A Python? At first I thought you were joking. A snake would eat all the fish. I wonder how long it would take using 5 gallon buckets to change water in that tank. I have a 20 gal and use buckets and a long tube but not long enough because my hands get wet. Most of the time it doesn't self-siphon so you know what is next. A mouth full of fish water. Usually end up getting some water on the counters and floor along with wet socks. Maybe there is a better way after all. Sometimes I feel like a chemist trying to figure out what stuff to use for ph and alkalinity. I never took chemistry in High school. Oh oh!!! I tried some of this new stuff by tetra it's supposed to allow you to not change yoiur tank for 6 months. I checked the water before and 1 day after treatment and it didn't make a differnce on the ph strips. What's in that tetra stuff? Sugar water? Anyway nice fish..
Have you tried tilting the tube a little? I have one of those and its not quite long enough to do it strsaight up and down so i tilt it and it still works (but you have to kind of up and down it) You can get gastroenteritis if you accidentally swallow some of that :-X :-X :-X yuck
