I'll be renovating my room soon to fix all the punch holes in the wall from my angry youth (better to break a wall then someone's jaw imo lol) so I'll be building my 7x3x3 while that happens, my first plan for filtration wasn't good seeing I was going off someone's word that a 2217 would filter up to 160 gallons, so I planned on 2 of them with an assortment of large sponge filters, power heads with prefilters and huge pothos bushes.
So would 2 2262s (eheims), a 2217, the assortment of power heads and sponge filters (planning on ateast 3 of each), huge pothos bush, and an appropriate UV sterilizer do well for a decently stocked tank?
Initial stock will for sure be
2x teugelsi bichirs
1 ornate bichir
1 weeksii bichir
2x CB endli
1 palmas polli
1 p. Buettokoferri bichir
1 delhezi
2x 3 bar indo days
1 Orino pbass
1 red wolf
1 huge role fish
1 a. Stalsbergi
As the bigger guys grow the smaller guys will be placed in a separate tank, to be replaced by
1 hoplias sp. (Hoping for a lacerdae, iguazu or curupria)
Some lower jaw bichir (hoping for dabola, PBB, congicus, ansorgii)
Possibly a smaller stingray (such as a male reticent or hystrix) but based on what input over been given so far probably not
Leichhardt arowana
hopefully a VATF or TATF
Arapaima (jk!)
Larger pike cichlid, hopefully marmorata, lenticulata, or zebrina if I can afford it lol
I am a bit OCD about my water params, I check daily and if 10 ppms even show do a WC. If that factors in at all.
Anything I should change?
