Well, I've moved. And since I managed to move into a bigger place, I got the big tank back and the turtles got to move too!
I think it's a 50 or 75 gal . . . . don't remember. Anyhoo here are some pics of the tank.
It came with an 18in+ pleco that I've had since college, so that makes Sakana about 6 years old. She is ENORMOUS. I'm more worried about the turtles than the pleco. I wish I had a video of this: the turtles started to nip at her, after a few days of investigating and crawling on her. She decided she had enough; grabbed one by the carapace, held it down, used it to push the other one away, then shoved it into a hole in the big rock decoration until it was stuck. Then held guard and popped it's turtle butt whenever it tried to move. I freed it after a while, don't remember if it was Speedy or Shiloh, but they have both given the pleco some respect space since then. Not worried about the pleco getting eaten. I've seen this fish kick the behind of a tiger oscar twice her size. Very very happy to have her back.
Speedy and Shiloh seem to be really enjoying their new home!
The whole tank-
They love to sleep on this thing-
Anyone know what type of filter this is in the background??? It came with the tank years ago and I don't know if it is sufficient or not.
"We never use the basking dock anymore, we still prefer the log even though it's sunk now!"
The goldfish that were in the big tank when I got it back. Now living in the turtles old 20gal with some snails. *sigh* I'll probably end up keeping them, since the longer I have them the less I want to feed them to the turtles.
I had some pics of the pleco, but they are on my phone and I can't find the box that had my cords in it. Still unpacking. I'll catch her again at some point. For a gigantic fish, she's good at hiding.
