    I know..he threw it in as an incentive to buy the tank.

    Family issues are forcing him to down size the operation unfortunately. So needless to say over the last few weeks we have score 1 complete 90G, a 50G, a 55 G, and a 30G all with excellent running gear.

    And he has made sure that I recieve the cream of the crop in regards to livestock. that way he is not forced to sell to strangers.

    LOL..actually Anthony..I like to look at it as lucky fish!

    I am very good to them..and they get excellent care from an experienced cichlid keeper.

    Not to toot my own horn or anything..ahem...

    I don't think I've ever seen a 50 gallon pentagon tank before.

    I shall up load a pic..

    I am not huge on the shape of it, but it was convenient and it holds water..so it serves my purpose for fish keeping.

    I can have whatever I want here...

    For some reason my landlords dont count fish, reptiles and birds as "Pets"... one reason I keep the animals I do, (plus I really am not a cat fan, thats my wife and I really dont like dogs...) Actually I really dont like "mammal" pets!
