OK, I'm so excited I will be completing my tank set up soon but have never had a tank as big as 4 ft before & am still fairly new to tropical fish.
I will be moving my community fish I have currently in my 2 and half ft set up into it.
FISH
4 x Clown Loaches (will get a bigger tank down the track as these grow)
1 x Yoyo Loach
1 x Flying Fox
1 x Albino Long Fin Bristlenose
2 x Male guppies
6 x Neon Tetras
FILTER?
Im needing some advice on filters & lighs for it, the 4 ft tank was 2nd hand & came with a Aqua filter, my concerns are will it filtrate my tank the best.
The tank would be approx 140litres, one option is to take my Fluval U2 Internal Filter out of my other one & add it with the Aqua one in the 4 ft tank (prehaps having them at oposite side on the tank in diffrenet corners?).
Are these going to be the best filters for my tank? I vacuume my gravel weekly in the tank & notice at the moment as most of my fish are ground dwellers their mess does not all get cleaned up in using my Fluval U2 Internal Filter so the vacuuming is essential weekly.
LIGHTING?
I need some advice on a Light holder that allows me to have 2 globes in it, I would have a Blue mood light in it as well as one for daytime use for my tank.
Does anyone know of a light holder that lets you control the 2 light seperatly? Also what is the best type of globe to have for my tank which will have a lot of plants in it & it does not get much natural light to it?
