Not a fish or turtle tank, but did have fish in it at one point

My first set up was a 20 gal. for my Water Monitor.... with a homemade pool. i just cut some plexi, sized it up, and siliconed it.






Put some feeder fish for her snacks lol

Then my second set up, a 4' by 2' cage. It's huge.





Some random skull i found on the side of the freeway one day.



Planning on getting a piranha tank soon. I will keep you guys posted

delphis

It's a 90 gallon tank, I have a sand sifting star fish a few damsels to get the cycle going. I have a bastard coral banded shrimp that killed my beautiful fire shrimp after he molted. there is about 60lbs of live rock and 40 lbs of live sand. waiting to add corals once I get the bastard shrimp out of the tank and add some more fish as well.

I haven't had good luck at all with sea stars. We have a 46 bowfront tank

1 false percula clown
1 longnose hawkfish
1 spotted cardinal fish
1 bubbletip anemone
1 coral banded shrimp
1 flaming scallop
1 hermit crab hiding somewhere
1 black longspine sea urchin

No good pics until I get this hair algae problem resolved, probably going to add a green sea hare in a month or so after I add some more filtration and some powerheads.

I don't think it's any harder than a fresh water tank it just costs more and is slower going.

Can goldfish live in S13 fuel tanks, if I'll only run 93 octane?

theicecreamdan

Its been more of a nitrates issue, vacations tend to build up nutrients in my tank.

Now I have 2 bubble tip anemones, it split and both halves lived.

Well it's not much harder than maintaining a freshwater tank... But that's generally for smaller-sized tanks.

Since you're trying to keep a large shark (and you can only keep one in a tank with virtually nothing except sand and rock) you'll probably need to keep a skimmer and sump...

But since you're not keeping corals or anything, you won't need to worry so much about adequate lighting and chemical levels. You'll mainly have to focus on the salinity of your water, and temperature.

Regardless though, leopard sharks should not be kept in tanks smaller than 500 gallons, otherwise they will probably die... They can grow up to 9 feet long, and generally cannot live in a home aquarium...

Not for fish but.....whatever...

55G
Some logs and wood chips from Petco,
Organically farmed PVC climbing apparatus,
N. American Millerus Thirtypackus background
Cultured faux-stone water dish
Repti-Glo Nite Lites from Wal-Mart

30" wild caught (seriously, I found her in my bushes when I lived in Arizona) Ball Python named Eden. Bad cell phone pic, but you can kinda see her poking her head out of the left log.

Really great pets, I'd have no problem letting a young child raise one. Also very low maintenance and I don't care what people say, they do have a personality.

Back on-topic, I've had a lot of aquariums in my life...always had a fascination with Oscars, there's a lot of really nice set-ups here. If I ever decide to buy a house (hate moving fish/aquariums), I think I'll venture into the world of salt water as well, you guys/gals have beautiful tanks.

What do you have invested in your set-ups? My snake is a relatively cheap endeavor, everything you see in the pic, including used tank and WalMart stand, I probably have less $300 invested...some of you probably have fish that cost more LOL.
