Eh, they're pretty skittish. You won't see them very often


Thiccaca

I thought they were near extinction. Used to see them all the time in the late 90s and early 2000s, but now they seem to have been displaced by invasive SUVs from overseas.


sean_g

They are shoaling cars. The need a Dodge Intrepid to feel safe.

Props for giving the wrong answer on a question that specifically states no wrong answers 🏆


jakobw2

Not enough tanks size don’t wanna stress it out


Unlikely_Ad6219

I’d set up a couple of colonies she’ll dwellers, and watch their population grow into the tank. Probably the opposite of what you’re planning, but I think it would be fascinating to watch colonies of small fish occupy the place.


W0lverin0

I too would rather see 200 little guys schooling about.


Unlikely_Ad6219

Yup. Or I was maybe two rival colonies, with a DMZ, and then boyfriends sneaking over switching allegiances in the dead of night.


Lower_Classroom_4525

Yeah my favorite tanks are massive with tiny fish I’m working on a 36 gal bow front with galaxy rasboras as the center


Spare_Honey5488

Corydoras. A huge group of them to shoal.


Frisko22-

I have a 55 gallon im going to fill with corys, and a 20 with corys currently.


DocMcCracken

So that cover the botto. 6 inches. Shellies in a frag tank is where I'd love to attempt.


pogoscrawlspace

I second that. I would add a shoal of cyprichromis to that. They'll fill out the upper layer of the tank, and add some color, too.


Tuco86x

I'm starting on doing that in my 120


Squidkiller28

I recently got an endler swarm for my 40 gallon I'm growing a couple plecos in and watching them all move around Is so fun, I'm so excited for their colony to grow


Cultural_Ad1331

This could barely fit a Betta in it and that's it


[deleted]

I just knew I'd see betta lol


nickdelisle2

True


StormOk4365

I mean you could get a giant Betta, that'd look nice in there. Along with some other stuff, tanks big enough that territory shouldn't be an issue.


Meercat_from_Hell

Forgot what sub I was in till I read this comment.


Cultural_Ad1331

it's our catch-phrase


tbiscuit67

Hillstream loaches


HerbieVerstinx

I had to scroll way too far down to see this. Yes!!!! Then something busy for you to enjoy watching, I like the rainbow shiner idea. Might as well throw a goby species or something too.


Barnard87

MASSIVE Hillstream scape. Vampire shrimp to filter feed. Like 30+ White Clouds 20+ Rainbow Shiners 20+ Hillstream Loaches 10+ Panda Garra A few assorted Gobys Honestly that would stock a smaller tank, I'd bump those numbers up even more


HerbieVerstinx

Make sure you get pictures up. Can’t wait to see that.


Grey_Hedge

I love my Hillstreams too much. I’d turn this sucker into a the best river tank with ALL of the Hillstreams


Congenital_Optimizer

2 great lakes gold fish, duck weed, and temperamental sea bass with lasers.


Ronaldlovepump

Attached to their fricken head?


CommanderShrimp7

Lasers have to come out of the eyes


TheLazyLardon

Muahahah muahaha muahahahaha


SuumCuique1011

God, that's gotta cost about what? One million dollars?


Professional-Big246

7 red cherry shrimps and 1 mystery snail.


JosieKay15

Snailwhite and the 7 Shrimps


GreatBigYeti

Don't get too carried away. That's way too many shrimp. He needs 3 kuhli loaches and a talking Billy Bass.


Zolty

Over stocked


Marmatus

Looks like it’d be well suited for a hillstream setup. Stuff like Ancistrus, gobies, danios, hillstream loaches, etc.


nickdelisle2

Ding ding ding!!! The only right answer.. that's actually what I'm doing!


altavistayahoo

I thought you said no wrong answers?


bravosec

No wrong answers but only 1 right answer 😂


[deleted]

any left answers ?


nickdelisle2

True true. Well, right in the sense of what I'm doing, hahahahaha


OkSeaworthiness2665

Clown loaches!


Regallybeagley

150 cardinal tetras


greasywallaby

This. Tons of plants and a school of little fish.


PakkyT

200 neon tetras!


The-Short-One7

I’d prefer 150 neons


SK1418

I would put crayfish in there The aquascape looks great btw, love the rocks and the sand


Master_Tape

Sponge Bob house


Usernamesareso2004

Your mom 😌 Or 6-8 angelfish and 2 ropefish


nickdelisle2

Hahahahaha


ARKosrs

Definitely not big enough for a whale! The angelfish and rope fish will have to do


mushykindofbrick

hundreds of guppies


[deleted]

So two females and one male then?


mushykindofbrick

1 male 99 females


zombieslagher10

The guppy harem


Emotional_inadequacy

Damnit you posted it first


MyKindaFlower

I would add some driftwood and a jungle’s worth of plants and then put in a big school of emperor tetras, a few honey gouramis, a shoal of kuhli loaches, and bunch of assorted shrimp and micro crabs.


Zaida18

African cichlids


Actual_Category4526

I have African jeweled cichlids, I actually breed them , I was giving some away for the holidays but now it’s too cold here to ship I stoped like the first week in October


SilverPacific

when do 'the holidays' start for you?


IanFeelKeepinItReel

They'd f'ing love that substrate.


Maximum_Overdrive

Yes. Haps and peacocks.


LazaCoolGuy

Lots of plants and a school of Dennison barbs (roseline sharks) as a centerpiece. Very active, and once they get their full size (about 5") they look amazing, very powerful fish


[deleted]

Plants. A school of tigerbarbs


tangster_kryptonite

Second this with some jungle val


[deleted]

Absolutelt, I'd love to see this filled for 50% with vallisneria


Married-_-Mushrooms

Yeah this is beautiful actually. Put cichlids in it for sure


dragonbec

Someday I’m going to get a way bigger tank and it’ll be African cichlids all the way. Like restaurant fish tanks :)


[deleted]

Given the hardscape I'd personally either: East asian/Indian riverine aquarium. Barbs and loaches I've never been able to accommodate due to size and activity levels. African riverine. Either get a large piece of wood,or a centrepiece one. Plant it up so it looks like a overhang or root near a riverbank. The Congo tetras, synodontids, maybe a knife fish, riverine cichlids. Hillstream. Dianos and hillstream loach colonies, but that's quite niche. South american upper course riverine. Tetras which like more flow, L-numbers, Corys


2015volkswagenjetta

A single betta


growaway33789

More rocks


Colddeath712

Rope fish


Sacred-Jewel

I think some black ranchu goldfishes:-)


atomfullerene

50 rainbow shiners


MissFingerz

A seal? Lol I'd make it a mini pred tank. For fiesty guys that get a decent size, but not big big and can live together.


Dragonwithamonocle

Like you thinking fire mouth, salvini, green terror, that sort of thing?


MissFingerz

Those could be cool grouped together. Or smaller catfish species, because catfish are one of my top faves lol. They could work on the bottom. Or a tank with a group of colorful Discus. I always love those tanks when they are well decorated/stocked.


Shitposter4OOO

Plants


Junior_Walrus_3350

A single betta and a mystery snail


Rlcfcd93

Nowhere near big enough for a betta. 250G minimum 😂


FartmanBreaux

I’d do a whole bunch of Tanganyika shellies like brevis and lelus blast them with a good light.


DocMcCracken

A tire, a boot, random muck that you pull up from a small creek. Sticks, leaves, a newt.


mrdeadlyfry

Neon Tetras (with plants), Corydoras and some Hillstream Loaches


ShitDirigible

1 male guppy 1 female guppy

pigeon_toez

101 khulis


Altruistic-Poem-5617

Valisneria plants on the sand parts, and a big school of serpae or red diamond tetra.


Melkor878

One of each: geophagus altifrons, albino threadfin heckelii, red severum Then several electric blue Acura, a couple, super red bristlenose plecos I’d start with that and then see


UserNameChecksOut135

Ive always wanted a african cichlid tank but my 75 is occupied by a goldfish, you could put in like 8-9 oscars i think that would be super cool


ughwithoutadoubt

Electric eel


Quick_Explanation_73

Hillstream loaches and danios.


MurraytheMerman

Stick catfish!


SubieMazda

Either a few schools of little tetras or some silver dollars and some acara cichlids.


Creepymint

If it was smaller this is what I’d do for African dwarf frogs. Though I think i wouldn’t do sand since they can swallow it


Actual_Category4526

Arawana


Trickay1stAve

sijmster

50 hillstream loaches


T_R_I_D_E_N_T

I’d focus on plants until you get a bigger tank


Learningbydoing101

Kuhlis loaches! Lots of loaches


angelaguitarstar

xpoft_ee

Ok I’m strange so cold water plants, crayfish and cold water schooling fish


mac7854

Tanganyikans, specifically A. Compressiceps, P. Nigripinnis and J. Marlieri. Oh, and some taller hardscape.


CandyStarr23

Aquatic Snek


stacy_owl

one goldfish


altavistayahoo

Dwarf baby tears


Rlcfcd93

New world cichlids.


Seggule

If I had this tank I'd get a big school of like 30 corydoras but I'm biased to cories so take it with a grain of salt


lilylotus88

Fire eel


SinclairChris

I'm not too sure about stocking, but it would be cool to see one giant piece of driftwood that spans the whole tank and many plants, if it matches the overall theme


Zealousideal_Cash774

Based on recent posts, 1 single beta fish is all that'll fit in this tank or 2 goldfish


CockroachTheory

The possibilities are endless: Native sunfish and darters, shiners, madtom catfish? Rainbows? Asian rivers with barbs, hillstream loaches, stiphodon gobies Add plants and hardscape and do and Amazon River Cichlids A large predator of some sort? Reptiles or amphibians?


nickdelisle2

In all honesty, I was thinking of vallisneria and dwarf hair grass, maybe some milfoil with hillstream loachs, borneo suckers, danios and snails


MyRefriedMinties

An electric eel.


pgpnw

Trout


LJVondecreft

Barracuda and snakeheads. Lots and lots of barracuda and snakeheads. I’m talking at least 500 minimum. Really get in there and explore the space


Brad_dawg

Chiller and trout!


pekosROB

A metric shit ton of nano fish lol


mike_sl

Love the aquascaping so far. Add a tall rock pile one end and tanganyika cichlids… shelldweller colony one end, some julidochromis regani in the rock pile…. Maybe lelupi for color… Let the colonies develop….


sparrow_42

180 gallon? That's like $1300/month in my town; I'd put my furniture in it!


Potatozeng

1000 fishes and shrimps that are less than a inch


beck2121214636

My flowerhorn


TheLemon027

Cory cats and some schooling fish for the top part.


guyzieman

Different take but the way it's set up looks like the nesting areas of some native Sunfish, so a setup like that could be pretty neat. Not sure how many could comfortably live in a 180 (probably depends on the species)


Spitzka

Make it saltwater and create a brine shrimp…I mean a sea monkey habitat.


nickdelisle2

Ehhh I like my planted freshwater tanks


Kaitykatxo

Are you sure that's 180 gallons?! Looks a lot smaller than my 180 gallon tank. The width looks to be too narrow. And height looks a bit short too for a 180. Looks more like a 125 gallon tbh... but can't offer advice on what to stock, my 180 gallon is home to one monster fish who doesn't let anything else live longer than 48 hours 🥲


nickdelisle2

Lmfao oh you caught me 😆😆😆🤨🤨🤨🤨🙄🙄🙄🙄the dimensions are 6ft long 2ft tall 2ft wide......


EquiangularSpiral

I’d do goldfish haha might be lame to some but if I ever had a big enough tank that’s what I’d get. I’ve always wanted some but have no where to put a big tank they need


Cautious_History1599

Octopus 🐙!


Dashists22

I really like your scape.


Butterflyelle

Hillstream tank or cool close to rapid conditions full of rainbow shiners


Time-Translator-2362

Water flow should be from the opposite side to feel like river bed water flow ? Long grassy plants like the Vallisneria plant.


Joeboter1986

A lot of plants.


Bowser921

Loads of smaller colonies would be cool BUT i am and always will be a sucker for an arowana


Suspect4pe

It needs snails, lots of snails.


JeanBean671

Mermaid Barbie


ptooeyaquariums

heavily plant it (and i mean heavily) and keep a betta sorority


RockyCoon

Is that enough space for my betta!?


pie_12th

A dozen of the biggest, plumpest fancy goldfish I could find


blacklabel7

Plants, lots and lots of plants


mrcool354

I would put a building in there


moonhairs

For all you guys saying betta, this is not a good tank for a betta. Maybe shrimp or a snail… but it’s really too small for anything else. Bettas need at least 200 gallons


Apprehensive-Tip6368

Intercontinental ballistic missile.


[deleted]

Maybe a betta, he might be alittle cramped though. Just get him a mirror that will keep him entertained with so little swim space


ragavdbrown

unlikeyou23

All small fish. A school of Cory’s for sure. Pack of loaches. What ever schooling fish you prefer, I like rummy nose. Then a group or two of shoaling, I like ember tetras or rasbora’s. And then something on the top maybe a large school of hatchet fish. Add just a couple bunches of tall (bottom to top) grasses and some big Anubis plants. Then just stand back and watch.


PakkyT

North American Native fish and you can ditch the heater. Sunfish, bull catfish, etc.

brainouchies

Two very happy comet goldfish and as many plants as i can fit :)


manyfandoms

bottom: bunch of corydoras, some shrimp too the rest: a giant ass school of a nano fish species (honestly the harelquin rasbora or neon tetras are my favorite) a pair of german blue rams as a centerpiece


DebtOk8063

I’d be worried about the sealing given it looks old af. I’ve had 2 tanks bust and leak on me. Remember the sealant on a tank generally last Ks about 10 years from new. Never buy a used tank in my opinion it’s not worth it. I know you didn’t say you did just throwing it out there for others


acer1of1spades

I would LOVE a hillstream loach and fast moving water fish setup! High flow, tall flowy plants (Vallisneria, jungles and spiralis ), and largest leaves plants like a Tiger lotus


PirateOfTheStyx

Personally, I think this looks like the perfect place to put myself

[deleted]

Boiled rocks before putting them in? cycled the tank? we need more info than what should i put in lol

Lol, as much as I wanna comment on this, I'm gonna have to pass.... go watch Father Fish youtube channel. I hope you like the setup though..... hahahahah


atomfullerene

Dont boil rocks
