Welcome from southern Wisconsin roller. build how ever you'd like, but word to the wise these girls get heavy fast. As a hunter with a 18" barrel I'll tell you there's no need for that extra 2". some will even tell you 16" is even enough, I my self havnt shot or hunted with one but I believe them.

Welcome to the forum feel free to tell us about yourself in the intro section

I'd love to have that tank, I'd still have it fresh water tho

Top picture is my male (smaller) and female sting ray bottom is my female, she's a tank

I got a 180 if that helps any

Nice! Used to frequent road American quite often, havnt been up there in about 10 years now. I'm just south the people's republic of Madison

Where abouts?

Welcome from southern Wisconsin auggie

My buddy has a Brit probably one of thee most well behaved labs I've been around, he's got a pup coming next fall from the same breeder he got this one from

I've allways liked stuff no one else had, everyone around here keeps fish like you posted In your ID post, Just not my thing.

Ps and with that mix you would keep fast movers like danios too, they call them dither fish the action of them kinda calms the other fish

Oscars will out grow your 75 gal quickly, you could probably get away with one. Never really liked parrots, they're a genetic hybrid. I allways kept large groups of smaller/medium sized south central american cichlids in my 75, Bolivian rams, sevrums, sajicas, convicts, fire mouth and some others. There's some disputes but no one ever killed each other, always had many places to hide. The other nice thing is with that group I always had a mix of cat fish and other odd balls in there too and they all got along for the most part

Looks like a yellow lab but idk 100% never really got into African chiclids. Could be a mutt tho too that happens often with Africans. Fish are just life any other life forum they all have their own personality, I've had fish that were suppose to be mean as hell and there were and vise-versa. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labidochromis

Superior lake Wisconsin is down by me and is actually a flowage

They've been slaying some monster browns and steelheads over in Milwaukee/Racine too

They're all there

Aka the big pond

Welcome from southern wisconsin

Used to know someone who did this every winter can't think who off hand. Also the two older guys of my deer hunting group used to tent camp for gun deer in Northern wisc, 70's-80's. they got some wild stories used to set up tents in a balsum grove.

Think he was referring to the age of the thread which pre dates my membership
