Thanx Kha!..... New bichir home will be set up in the next 3 weeks or so!! Excited..... the big boys will have a beautiful wood piece they can perch/hang around....
Nice Frank!! Good luck with the new set up! and we need more pics too
Thanx Kai..... I have some of my bichirs in there temporarily..... the left side will be for all my platinum bichirs & the right will be my pleco tank......
The overflows connect to a 55 gallon drum which is 85% filled with water which will be a moving bed k3 "reactor"..... the remaining 8"s or so are filled with pads for the mechanical part..........the water then flows into a bio tower with sintered glass which is inside a 150gallon acrylic sump underneath the stand..... I will be adding 8 LARGE pathos plants in the sump (hydroponics style) with 3watt LEDs 65000k running 12 hours a day..... still work in progress.......
Set up looks sickkk. K1 is great. How many cubic feet are you planning on running? I have 2 cubic feet in the sump I just built. After weeks of letting handful after handful of freeze dried krill rot in my mech chamber the water was still at 0 ppm ammonia.
Thanx brother. FOUR cubic feet of K3.... plus tons of pathos..... and other tweaks I'm sure.
Very sick. That is definitely going to be enough. I let a huge talapia filet rot in the tank to test it after the cycle and my ammonia stayed at 0ppm. O.O Nitrates went insane, but pothos destroys those.
