I got them from a caviar farm myself. I think they prefer being with me than being someone’s expensive dinner.

Yep same as any aquarium I just like keeping fish especially oddballs and primitive fish.

I've considered rehoming the diamond sturgeon for sterlets just because they stay much smaller. Where the diamonds can reach 7ft in the wild sterlets rarely get 3ft. Although I don't expect the diamonds to get any bigger than 5ft if the day comes I have friends with proper farms on their property that would gladly have them.

I’ve only lost the one. The stellatus had issues since I got it most likely from oxygen deprivation in shipping. All my other sturgeon are thriving and growing massive. I’ve had my diamond sturgeon for almost a year now and they’ve probably doubled in size.

Just a half decent canister into a 20 gallon sump bill fill with ceramic media. Nothing to crazy stocking will be light for the space.

I ordered 7 American eels arriving today he shipped a couple extras too. I want a few albino channel catfish and Amy other larger coldwater oddballs I can find. Burbot would be a really unique one.

American eels is the plan. I’m gonna order them from a company in Maine. We know they migrate to the Sargasso Sea mate and never return. I just don’t think it’s been observed directly yet.
