20 Long Aquarium Photos
We thought it would be an ideal spawning tank for our Tiger Barbs, giving a female plenty of room to keep from being seriously injured by an overzealous male.
After several successful Tiger spawnings it has served as an excellent fry tank for many species thanks to its generous surface area.
It moved upstairs in 2002 and as of that December houses young Parrot Cichlids. (NO! Not Blood Parrots!)

Tiger eggs are clearly visible in the base of the plant. They're almost done with the wild thing and we'll be putting them back into the 75 Barb shortly to keep them from munching on eggs.

We picked the best looking pair of Tigers and set loose to spawn in the 20 Long on April 19, 2001. They're in mid-dance at this point, If you look closely you can see eggs scattered about.

We initailly used the 20 Long as a spawning tank for Tiger Barbs and later as a fry tank. On March 31, 2001 we had Cichlid Parrot, Rosy Barb and Electric Yellow Lab fry in it. image/jpeg, 600x746 (24bit) img_0328_03-31-01.jpg   77925 bytes |
