NEW PIX : Ball Of Clowns....

it's like watching animal cops when they go to a house that has 75 cats, all neglected and half-wild because the owner hoards them. doesn't care about the needs of the cats, just feels an impulse to have MORE

they dont look neglected to me ;)

they look perfectly healthy to me, Li has some awesome fish. and know's what he's doing, so please...lets keep the nasty comments to ourselves, they get us nowhere.

:rolleyes:. They may be healthy. How would any of us know that? Neo is using a loophole to keep all of these fish in this manner. However this still does not provide any of these fish with the adequate space or decor they should have. I realize he plans on putting them in much larger aquariums, but it would have been better to wait until those aquarium were finished before getting them.

Loophole? lol.... I hope you're not talking about the drip system......



IF that's not the case, what is the loophole that you speak of?

I am referring to the drip system. I'm calling it a loophole because a normal 180 gallon aquarium would never be able to support the bio-load of that many fish, yet his fish have perfect water. I agree his method is the best possible, however the fish are still being denied an adequate amount of space.

I wouldn't call the drip system a loophole. It's pretty common to have one now. It's so easy that I have it set up on smaller tanks. A drip system should be standard equipment IMO. I'm only dripping 1gph on my 265 and the nitrates NEVER go above 15ppm. My bio load is much higher too (but his filtration is far better than mine).

If he put all of those loaches in a 1000 gallon tank I bet that they'll take up the SAME amount of space. I guess we'll wait and see about that though.

LOL. Of course they will take up the same amount of space. But the aquarium will be over 5 times larger so there should be more room. I suppose it depends on the design of it though. Either way I cannot wait to see it!
 
Those clowns don't actually look like they're looking for more space......they seem to all want to be in the SAME space all at one time....LOL ! I think if he had a tank that was 10 times bigger.....all those clowns would still be grouped together...all in the same little corner....... :laugh:

So what's the problem? If they all hover together and act like clown loaches do I don't see what's wrong.
