Welcome aboard JC! We can add a cold water section, no problem, good idea! What would you say would be a good description for it so I can add it to the list of categories?
Looking forward to reading about your predators, btw!

i should have been more descriptive i guess, and since my post was "what do you have?" i should have said what i have...

here are my tanks (currently ;))
75g - cichlid community, mainly africans
20gL - cichlid tank for fry from 75g
90g - 11" florida gar, 2 6" sterlet sturgeon
29g - 2 5" grass pickerel (probably going into the 90g when they're larger)
180g - 20" silver aro, 16" clown knife, 14" mono pbass, 12" ocell pbass, 2 13" IR sharks, 16" common pleco, 16" TSN, 10 irwini
currently looking to reduce the bioload on the 180, but i cant bring myself to part with anything, and i cant afford another 180 at the moment :(

as for a coldwater section, here is the description from another site for thier coldwater section

"Discussion of cold water, temperate and North American native fish, such as Bass, Walleye, Esox sp., Sturgeons, Bowfins, Tench, Chinese Hi-fin loaches, Wel's Catfish, etc."

also the sunfin/panfish species, and darters, gobys, sculpins, and coldwater catfish are popular but not listed

update:
the 2 IR's are out :(
the water cleared up perfectly after decreasing the bioload (and water changes), and i added more media so i can keep more fish in the future
then i happened across a free 10" RTC, so of course i added him in

so now my catifsh to fish ratio is too high, so i will be on the lookout for more mid or high level swimmers ;)
