Currently hes in a 4x3x1.8 but I've been rebuilding the filtration on my 5x3x2 for him which will hopefully last him a couple of years until I've planned and built something a touch bigger.

New tank is currently looking like this...



I've had it running for a couple of years but wasn't happy with the flowrate, so drilled a bigger hole, upped the pipe work and redesigned the weir. Just waiting for the acrylic 2nd skin to be cut.

Awesome tank, very good. Whats the risk of death then, with sticking your hand in the tank? lol

If I get shocked when hes full grown it would definitely be a 999 moment.At the moment i'm not sure how many amps he's charging at! He shocked me when he was 15" but that wasn't any worse that the shocks i get at work from the dodgy electrics!
