    I can fin upload my 100 L tank,I fear it will be too small for my catfish sharks,but as you can see they are still fairly small.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG].

    Nope,it's under the ship wreck,the water is pushed out there,look to the left of the tank,the black box there is my internal biofilter,it's on of the older models,the tank will be replaced with a another 100 Litre tank,i will keep the cabinet for the new 100 Litre,as for the old tank it shall become my breeding tank.

    the small tank on the left is my pirannah tank,the 100 L one is my com tank for now (until my 500 L arrives).i'm still wondering if i should make my 100 L more natural or wait for my 500 Litre and go all out natural on it.

    the main problem that i have is space in my house.

    I always thought Pirhanna were small fish that swam in groups to devour everything, like on the cartoons. Was surprized when I actually saw them at a aquarium.

    if you are planning on keeping one then you need to make sure you have a strong filter,i used a external sump for my tank.


    also,if you are planning on giving them meat then make sure no spices or chemicals are added,they really like chicken hearts.
