150 Gallon Cichlid Tank Project

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
DSC_4336.JPGDSC_4335.JPGHere's my filtration. I have a 55 gl sump that the overflow drains down into the 7" sock filter, into the next chamber with K1 media circulating with a pump, then it goes through a sponge filter to get the the refugium/algae culture area where I have it lit 24/7 and on to the sump that pumps it back up. Thanks for the advice Pops, but I'm not looking to hang anything in the tank.

Thanks, my coworker used a Nikon D300s, he uses it with much more talent than me and got the pictures to come out looking great like they did.
 
I've got a light that I put a daylight bulb on one side of the ballast to get the reds and a bluish light on the other side, the mix is pretty nice. I think the daylight is 8 or 10k and the blue is 6 or 8
 
Luckily the razorback musk turtle is a type of turtle that is mostly a water turtle and doesn't grow past 5-6". It's great for water aquariums where you want a little diversity from just fish. Be careful about buying a turtle, because most species get really big and are not turtles able to thrive in deep water environment. Mine likes to hang out on the intake elbow to stick it's head out of the water and then dives down into the tank and swims around.

I've read they are quite messy, how is your experience and how do you deal with it?
