You have the best Asian aro com tank I know of in Canada. (If anyone out there disagrees, you'll have to post some photos to prove me wrong! ).

How many heaters do you use on your 550 and what size are they? Also, how have you arranged your filtration?

Congratulations on such an awe-inspiring set up!

Thank you kindly for the comment.

I use a 15000- 120000 btu tankless water heater and a 315SS heater exchanger to heat the water using a 1000w titanium as a back up.

Filter is a sump style, packed with alkinds of bio media, RO/DI auto water changer, changes 100 gals per day!

I'll try to get some pics up soon....on the setup.

I've pm'd you more questions. Something tells me that I can learn a lot from you.

Holy smokes, that's awsome! I hope you have a backup generator for everything. Even though your tank is so well stocked, it looks to be super clean. Well done!

That's a Brachyplatystoma juruense not a Tigrinus. <= BRAINFART

I gotta give props for the best looking community indeed, I see everything I want for mine: aros, rays, large catfish and smaller "community fish" like thos Heros sp. Rotkeils and correct me if I am wrong, but did I see some Geos in the other thread?!?

Congratulations on the setup and stock.

The rays don't catch the clown loaches?

That's a Brachyplatystoma juruense not a Tigrinus.

juruense heads are thicker and don't have blue cheeks. Looks like a tig to me

Boydo, very impressive!!

Did you grow them all together?

That's a Tig, not a Jur....100% Tig

That's a Tig, not a Jur....100% Tig

Either the lack of glasses, the little tint of yellow, or the fact that I never had a large Tigrinus like that ...whatever it was threw me off.

It's definitely a Tigrinus
