900 gallon tank video

Post by CFC »

Remember this http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/view ... =4&t=21122 well the tank has been finished and running for a few months now so i thought id post a little video.

Please note that this was not an actual feeding session i just added some food to get the fish moving about, before anyone comments that the fish on the bottom arent getting any food.

Very, very nice. Impressive tank, ditto fishes :thumbsup:
I personally like the parts in which the Ageneiosus shows up. Doesn't seem very small, so I can only guess how large the Leiarius must be. Does that one never have a go at your smaller Sorubim btw?

The Liearius is huge, 26" from nose to tail and at an anglers estimate around 10lbs in weight (i think thats roughly 5kg) its never bothered the Sorubims but i did try adding a second smaller Liearius that a friend needed rehomed and my original one went absolutely mad, even in that big tank it would not tollerate another of its own kind and after 2 weeks of fighting i had to remove the smaller one again.
