    looked a little bare, Merry Christmas - Algenco 

    Default Over stocked

    I found this tank of craigs list and it seemed like a good example of over stocking to me. 200 gallon 4 Red belly Pacus, 4 Oscars, 2 Jaguar chiclid (breading pair), 4 Placostamus. If those jags are breeding it must just be to feed the other fish.

    http://reno.craigslist.org/hsh/957182579.html
    29 gallon
    3 tiger barbs 1 platys 3 gold barbs 7 neon tetras 1 S.A.E. 1 pleco 1 crayfish

    2.8 gallon planted
    many cherry shrimp, Oto

    240 gallon aquaculture experiment
    5 yellow bullheads, 1 green sunfish
