530 Gallon Mekong Tank project

[Fish Tank Travis]

Hi there

its been a long time since my last posts her. but now I'm back with some updates

First of all I go a Flyriver Turtle (carettochelys insculpta) it was a rescue ouf of a way to small Tank . The filtration works very well and I didn't had to do anything in the last 6Months. it just run's

Here a vid from the current Tank (click for HD)

Very beautiful tank! How big are your fire eels currently?

Zigermandli Can you provide more information, pics on your filtration? It looks like you are doing a HMF/K1 combo. Curious to exactly how you set it up, flow rate, and how much internal space it is taking up.

Yes



dimensions are 60x80x25cm that means around 31 gallon within four levels, flowrate ~ 528 gallon's per hour

1. HMF Chamber with skimmer
2. Moving bed (Kaldnes K1)
3. Big chamber with filtrationmat cube's and microfiltration step
4. Clear- and Heatingchamber

I run the Filter with a Eheim compact 2000 combined with a Aquael 10'000 Liter stream-pump for supporting the current in the Tank.

regards Thomas

long time since my last post here

Little update:

The Jardinii is still growing fast, although i feed only 2-4 times a week, actually her measures around 17". The Fireeel Pack and the insculpta is fine too. I only have little concern's about the NTT's, they grow like nothing and i'm worried that they never will reach a healthy full grown Size.

thats it

Regards Thomas
