Got away from the hobby for a while. Lost all my awesome fish several years back; was very disheartening. But the bug never left me and I just started construction on a new tank, a 340. 96"x34"x24. In the meantime, I have a 55 with 2 huge goldfish (one of which was won at a fair in Ohio!), a common pleco, a jv Jag, an Achara cat, and a massive blue crayfish. The growth rate of the cat has hastened my motivation to build the 340, its already 8"-10".
The new tank is already constructed. I'll post pics of everything shortly. Just ordered an FX-6, in lieu of making a wet/dry. But I'm not exactly sure how I want to plumb it to the tank. I'm thinking I want corner baffles on both ends, with the drains and returns located within the baffles for a neater look. Not sure if that's feasible, since I believe the lines of the 6 are only 1". So I'm definitely looking for advice for a good setup! Thanks to all, and its good to be back!
