We now have it filled it took us around 3-4hours, that long. Its all filled up but the filter isnt going yet as were waiting for the silicone to set. Its still heating up too.
I am using a very lage air pump which several large air bombs to give lots of oxygen off. And for substrate i was going to use sand but it does get mucky and look rubbish so ive used a fine layer of gravel instead. It also makes the fish stand out more
Weved added a strengthening bar to make sure that it doesnt bow to much and i moved all my big fish across i got drenged, heres a stocklist:
1x 22" Perruno catfish
1x 12" Tiger shovelnose catfish
2x 14" Oscars
1x 14" Baysnook
1x 15" Peacock bass
1x 18" Pearsei Cichlid
1x 12" Ornate bichir

bruce just a warning, when u put ur rays in there u will want another fx5, i know ur just using it as a bump but u want to get as much water movement through it as u can and one fx5 wont be able to keep that going once its been up for a while, but it looks good, wish my parents were as cool about keeping fish as urs are... mine keep telling me that fish only grow as big as the tanks they live in... they will never understand....
another thing but it looks like u already know, fx5 needs to be a certain distance below the intake, i wanna say its like 18" just something to keep in mind
