Hey everyone I'm Joel,
I have been browsing these forums for a while now, so I thought I'd say g'day! I live with Jarrod who is also on here. I started off with a 2ft tank with some Elec Yellows/Red-tailed sharks/BN etc but I soon discovered Tiger Oscars, bought two at 5cm, then moved them into a 4ft (~250L) tank where they got to about ~30cm ea. Between the 5 of us housemates we have 8 tanks running plus a few spare.

This is my pride and joy is a 6ft 500L + 60L sump, which is currently home to a Saratoga Leichardti (20cm), three Murray Cods ~15cm each (currently for sale) and two Motoro Stingrays (1x male, 1x female), which I bought as 14 week old pups not too long ago. I'd say they'd be roughly 6 months old by this point. The female is approx 20cm in diameter and the male is about 15cm. I've been told they take about 1 or 2 years for them to mature, my end game is breeding them.

I have just purchased 4x peacock bass juveniles (5cm) from Vebas, which reside in my 3ft tank (~100L), below.

I'm still trying to stabilize their diet. I haven't sexed them yet but I bought them to breed. I have other tanks with mollies/guppies etc which reproduce like crazy, They're giving me some breeding practice before I give the P-Bass and Rays a run.
