Have a bit of time to set up a nice pup tank but I wan't to do it right. What size of tanks would you guys use? I have a 180 they can go in after a while, but initially was wondering what you guys use, I'd say anywhere from 35-75?
How do you guys prefer to filter them? I have an fx5 that is just a little bit of an added bonus running on my sump right now, obviously seeded with same bacteria as main tank, I was thinking about just putting that guy on the pup tank and leaving it at that until they get bigger? The other option I was thinking of is creating it as a loop off of my main tank. If I go that route, how many GPH of my main tank/sump water should I be pumping through the pup tank? I imagine they probably don't like too much current, just wondering what an acceptable flow rate is for pups if I do go the loop route?
Thanks in advance.
