DSLR: THE 180 and its contents

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Question should i keep the heaters close to eachother? or one on each side guys? right now i have one on each side. Was just wondering if it would be double the heating capability if i had them close to eachother.
Other than that if some of you where wondering why the jag looks like he is burnt in the 1st pic its because during the move to the 180 i had him in a rubbermaid Box and he decided to bail causing a slight injury which is healing up very very well.
The question about the glass thicknesss still has not been answered so ill ask again, Is 15 MM of glass thick enough with a brace, the tank come with a brace from the manufacturers but i still wanted to know.
Today is day 5 since it has been setup, currently working on getting a SHOW MALE WC Umbie.

As long as the heaters are in a flow area, it doesn't really matter where they are. I would think even with 15mm you would require at least a brace in the center. My 180 has 2 braces as well as euro bracing but it is thinner in the walls. Hope your jag heals up well.
