That's a neat idea. I was thinking that they could be setup on a big shared filtration system like they use at some small LFSs.Racersk;4597808; said:Use one or 2 as a sump and overflow from the top to the next, to the next, etc...Cascading fish art with one lamp over the whole thing, just need one pond pump, several overflow U bends, and a light fixture...
You could even incorporate the return into the structure as a spine, make it all from brass (polished!) and you got live art!
but then there is the threat of a ich epidemic or somethingDreamsing;4597830; said:That's a neat idea. I was thinking that they could be setup on a big shared filtration system like they use at some small LFSs.

haha theres quite a story about those piranhas. they were the first "monster fish" I ever had. I got the bigger one about 3 months before the smaller one and when I got the smaller one I just dumped it in being the dumb fish keeper i once was and the bigger one chomped off the smaller ones tail and I dident know what to do so I put it in a one gallon gold fish bowl and sat there for hours at a time watching it and making sure it ate the pieces of potato that I droped in the bowl....its a miracle that its still aliveballinouttacntrol;4597854; said:ich would need a host for it to travel.
nice size difference you had on the piranhas there. Did they all survive?
No need for a big sump, use what's there, utilize the 2 bottom tanks for filtration, first one filled with a large sponge then bio balls or totally full of scrubbies, this overflows to the last one that hase coarse to finner floss, ending with a sump with your return pump.red devil123;4597839; said:Quote:
