Hello all, It's been almost 4 years since I last posted a topic on AC under the name "Fishdude." I'm pleased to say that I've finally got back onto the fish-keeping scene with a 46gal bowfront. Here's what I've got set up:

2F 1M Blue Ram
2F 1M Gold Ram
2 Pictus Cats
5 LARGE zebra danios

The water usually stays at 82F with a PH of 6.8, I've got a Topfin 60 filter and two powerheads. Here are a few pics:

Feeding time!

The blue ram male, for some reason his fin looks really ragged here... it isn't that bad in reality. It was just a side effect of being so cramped in the dealer tank. Lots of fin biting!

What do you guys think? Any suggestions?




[edit] Here's one I just took of two of the blues facing off, the water got a little cloudy for some reason...

thats a lot of males in that tank with no females. i would split them up into separate tanks and get each one a girl.

all three of them look awesome though. the ragged fins will heal in no time, given he doesnt get into to many fights with the other males.

In the stock list he said he has 2F and 1M of each.
 
Thanks for the kind words everyone!

That's what I was supposed to end up with. I have a sneaking suspicion one of my female gold rams decided it wanted to try out the male life..

Would you guys say that the tank is stocked out? It seems like it's missing fish in the top level and I want something a little more interesting than the Danios. The do, however, need to be large enough to not get eaten by the pictus.
