what to do with my 4ft aquarium

[alex_c]

well as my mangrove jack has carked itim now left with a tank that originally cost me $1300 and dont know what to do with it. i was thinking of a freshwater croc if its large enough. any suggestions?

4ft wouldn't be big enough for very long I wouldn't think. Maybe a nice snake, pygmy monitor, blue tongues?

 

[Riley]

sorry to hear bout that. maybe central beardies?
got any pics of the enlcosure?

 

[mines bigger]

i would put some more fish in it, maybe loaches or pleco's

 

[RevDaniel]

yeah maybe i already have a lacey,a bredli,and beardies. and im not that keen on another fish the mangrove jack was great he wasnt fussy water chemistry never seemed to bother him but unfortunately i think he has possibly eaten a rock or something bad has been in the new gravel i put in on the weekend and poisoned him. but its too late now

just a suggestion with the fish(if you still want some) spangled perch are some of the hardiest fish i have ever come across and they eat anything just like a mangrove jack, they get big and they look awesome what more can you ask for??

alex- Sorry to hear about your fish. I have spoken to one Croc keeper (leighr33 on this site) who I think is raising a Freshy in a 4footer.....?

put a saritoga in the tank

yeah i was thinking of a saratoga but id rather another herp of some kind. because im tired of the cleaning and problems associated with it. and a croc is something ive always wanted to own.

If you cant decide what to put in the tank you are most welcome to give it to me!!

ive already got netteds. but im more leaning towards something aquatic because its fitted with an eheim 2215 which i think was 600 bucks worth of filter and a uv sterilizer which was 200 lol

 

[Jakee]

Lol i understand. FROGS,CROCS !

 

[reptilegirl_jordan]

[bluetongue beno]

lol it would feel a bit weird because the mangrove jack was like a pitbull so that was half the fun of having him
