My latest tank. I thought I was goin big, but after joining this site, Im not so sure?
TANK: 6'x2'x2'
FILTRATION: Aqua Pro CFD 2600 l/h canister filter, running 1kg of bio noodles and bio rock. Three trays of foam, and a tray of bio balls
1 X Aqua FX 2200 l/h internal filter
HEATING: 1 X 300 watt Aqua Pro heater
FISH: 1 Happy Jardini courtesy of SketcHDawG

I have plans of putting in the sump, but a fare bit of cleaning ahead. The tank has been up n running for 5 weeks and I have been waiting for the perspex lids to be cut. A fair bit of planing with the whole setup, as we wanted to leave no place for the Toga to jump. The lids are much quieter now when he smashes them :naughty: Thanks to Gav for the top job on the lids.
& thanks to SketcHDawG for doing the cleaning and water changes so far...
 
I love this setup. Every morning I wake up to this. Here are the Pix

Enjoy, and thanks for giving the jara a descent home:headbang2

Nice set up. More Brissy guys!!! I use the same canister although I keep them jam packed with bio-media only.Remove the foam pads they come with altogether and throw them away. Run half a basket of filter floss and it polishes the water quite nicely while still having great flow.
Any close ups of the Jar?

I just want to make 1 thing clear. This is not my tank, just my fish. The tank belongs to Deno. Thanks again bro for the 5 star accomodation, the Jardini loves it:)
