Finished setting up my new 220 gallon tank!

[Loubard]

Here we go:


1. Trying if it's waterproof.


2. Already the cloudy water fase. I had 2 1200 lh internal eheims at this time.


3. Almost full, I just had to connect the sump at this time.


4. Completly finished and ready to start the cycling proces.


5. The sump. Still need to make a drip plate.


6. On the left there are 2 Eheim cannisters and on the right is the light timers and all other electra.

I am going to pick up 2 Polypterus endlicheri tommorrow to join my 5 lapradei. There all going in this tank when the cycling is finished.

Hope you liked it,

Cheers

It is indeed inteded to keep the water from loosing heat when going through, but there is a lack in real use here because the tank isn't out in the cold but in my bedroom wich is pretty warm (22 C). But I leave it there, I don't see any use in taking it off.
