    Default Hello

    Hi All! My name is Chad and I am getting ready to start a 55 gallon aggresive tank. I need advice as to what I should get and how many fish to get. I want aggressive fish that eat feeders but not eachother. Thanks for the help!!!!

    Welcome to the fabulous AC!

    You may want to look into a much larger tank if that is what you have in mind.
    A 55 is not really big enough for one large aggressive fish yet a tank full.Oscars,piranha or whatever you have in mind need much larger tanks then you have at the moment.They grow rather fast as well
    It is a great starter tank though.

    Welcome to the forum Chad

    BTW, you might want to post your question in the correct forum (depending on the exact fish you are thinking of) so more members with actual experiance can find your question and offer you some more good advice

    If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

    ^_^ Welcome to the community

    I think the board you're looking for is Predatory Fish, between Catfish and Other Species.

    The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of the act
