Wow i guess im that forgetable The tank will house the following.....
A trout which you all should have guess by now since i put that one thread up.

couple Creek chubs

Yellow Perch

Rock Bass

Pumpkin Seed

Couple Crayfish

Probally a handful of minnows. It will give some of the fish something to do while they swim and hide in fear of being eaten lol

maybe a smallmouth will have to see when the time comes on that one

I cought a 16 inch large mouth Bass and was thinking of just putting that and the trout but was afraid to find both of them dead one day cause the bass would probally eat the trout and be stuck halfway choking on it

I second that- technically you have no filter on there... with that stock, and that density. and to generate the appropriate flow, I would be thinking about a large internal filter and a large external filter.

Real impressive setup mate! I cannot wait til i can afford and have enough space to get some more going like that! But yeah just re-emphasising the points above, going to need some serious filtering there!

Best of luck keep us informed and let's see some active pics when ready
