Photo Caption: A pic of our Pacu when he was lil
and living in the 40 gallon. Look
hard, top left of the aquarium...Yep
thats him! Oh and our turtles are in
the top left also. They were so
little. We got em' big and strong
though and let them go back into the
wild!
Tank Description: We actually have two aquariums, one is 100 gallons. It currently houses our awesome 13" (AND STILL GROWING) Pacu, a rescued Pacu that is 2", a 3" Jack Dempsey, two Plecos an 8" and a 4", a 6" Peacock Cichlid, a 3" Blue Cobalt Cichlid, a pair of 4" Green Severums, and a 2" Khouli Loach. We also have a 40 gallon breeder tank which currently houses two female Peacock Cichlids and one male. We hope they will breed. Our large Pacu is very passive and loves to be pet, while the Peacock Cichlid in the same community thinks the entire 100 gallons is simply ALL HIS!
About Yourself: I got into hobbying because of turtles. Once the turtles were big and strong, we released them but I wasn't through with fish. They are my relaxation! I enjoy them thoroughly and they always make me smile! I am currently waiting to hear back from the Memphis Fire Department to see if I will be in their October 2009 hiring class. I want to save people. I suppose until that time, I will continue saving fish!
Fish Kept: In the 100 gallon:
2 Red-Bellied Pacu's
2 Pleco's
2 Green Severums
1 Jack Dempsey
1 Peacock Cichlid
1 Blue Cobalt Cichlid
1 Khouli Loach
In the 40 gallon:
2 Female Peacock Cichlid's
1 Male Peacock Cichlid
Corals/Plants Kept: We use plastic plants, as Pacu would eat the real ones!
Tank Size: 100

 Photo Caption: Our 100 Gallon. I tried to leave it
a little more open than most tanks
containing cichlids because I want
the Pacu to have lots of room to
swim around. There are at least 3
good hiding areas for all of the
other fish to be in...Not to mention
the plants and such.
