With the addition of the rio 10f hyperflow, i have a sufficient pump outtake (660 gph) to support the under gravel jets.
There are a total of 6 pipe lines: 4 jets, 1 rainbar and 1 filter. The canister filter has acquired a lot of floating particles already and converts a cloudy tank to a clear one in 1-2hours.
Thanks for the comment. At the moment, my Alpha male (Angelika) and an Electric Yellow is keeping them in check. I will have to plan ahead, probably throwing my CA cichs for adoption on a later date. For now, my family enjoys watching the Tex cichs as well as the main fish in our tank, Angelika.
