good work, hagen

Post by brett_fishman » Tue Jan 23, 2007 4:42 pm

this is really helpful to new fishkeepers:

120L Geo-System Asian Biotope
Shopping List (notice the '8 large clown loaches')
Selecting a larger aquarium for this type of habitat is important. These species will demonstrate their full potential when given the space to be maintained in groups and allowed sufficient room for their active swimming patterns.
this makes me sick, i thought hagen was an alright company..but what is this?!

a 120L tank is 30 gallons...come on!! 30 gallons isnt enough for ONE large clown, let alone eight!!!

70g Tank - 2 Pearl Gouramis 10 Harlequin Rasboras 4 Neon Tetras 2 SAEs 1 Swordtail

The GEOsystem Kit 120 is actually 58 U.S. Gal. (219 L), (47.3 x 15.8 x 19.7 in.).

It gives the tank sizes in the products section.

It does list the fish for the 120 as:
8x medium /large Clown Loach
8x Opaline Gourami
36x Leopard Danio
12x Siamese Flying Fox

The fish list for the asian habitat 2 setup is just as good :lol: the tank is the GEOsystem Kit 100 which is 48 U.S. Gal. (182 L)
18x Black Ruby Barbs
24x Red-tailed Rasboras
10x medium Pearl Gourami's
5x Skunk Botia
8x Siamese Flying Fox

Im sure all of the Siamese Flying Fox's will love beeting the crap out of each other on a daily basis :evil:

I thought the 120 was referring to gallons, and thought it eas probably a little crowded. But I like the concept.
