My inside ray tank

My adventure.

In my house i have a litle corner and i decided to use it to make a ray tank.

the corner is this one


I took all the junk out



then i put stirofoam for mantaining the temperature and o wood to close





The seeling is very low, it's an area under the stairs, so i asked my son and my wife to help me.

After that i used lake liner




Then i fill it up




The biologic filter is a bucket fill with bioballs


And it's done.

It's working for a long time now and next week is going to receive is first ray.

One of the biologic filter is this one

The other biologic filter is this diy that i've made with a friend.

We used this 2 recipients


Then we made this holes


and we fill with this material. I don't know the name for it in english. It's used in the house constructions.

Then i stole this tupperware from my wife. She didn't like it. And we have done some more holes.









This is for mechanical filtration and for reciving the water from the pump.

Now working

No, no. The outdoor pond (the one that is going to be inside my greenhouse) is for Motoro rays and for testing. And is going to happen. But i want to cover and finish the greenhouse first.

This one, that is done since November 2007, is for other ray species and for Motoros if needed, until the greenhouse is not finished.

In this moment i have some cichlids in this one.
