cool! will fresh water plants survive in a saltwater tank? give me some details on how you do that. sounds like a cool little experiment i could try with my ten gallon.

The tank will be FW when I convert it to plants (which shouldn't be long now!)

Yah know my freshwater set up started as a turtle tank .. my slider < well my kids slider > got to big for his little tank so i got him a 55 .. but then it looked empty soo i went out and got a red parrot and a JD .. pretyt good size fish .. the LFS had a 300 gallon tank set up with a bunnch of turtles and lots of fish .. the turtles paid the fish no mind at all .. they said it was because the fish were to big and that it would be fine to put them in my tank..
Well sure enough that f-in slider spent the next 3 days trying to eat the parrot fish .. didnt mess with the JD .. so much that i had to move the turtle out of the tank and now its a fish only FW lol /shrug .. just thought i would share

I will definetly keep you all posted on my adventure here. A friend of my brother in law's is selling a used 75 gallon for 75 bucks. I plan to do a teacup stingrays, some wild angels and wild discus, a pictus cat, an african butterfly, and a leaffish. Just thought I'd let ya all know. As soon as I start setting it up, I'll take some step by step pictures.

i doubt those fish are to big for him. ive kept planty of turtles and they will most likely bite all there fins off, and then just leave the fish dieing at the bottom of the tank. :scared:
