flipping the switch on the 400 gal

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
haha, basically moving everyone from my 220 into this and shutting the 220 down for a little while at least. I have posts in the "other characins, and media lounge", but basically 3 GATF's, 1 VATF, 2 Goonch cats, Atlantic Tarpon, Gold Dorado, Armatus vampire tetra, 5 NTT dats, 4 IT dats, NGT dat and AT dat .... My 220 is getting very cramped to say the least! :D

How are the Goonches doing in the warmer water?
 
so far so good, hopefully my bigger tank has even better oxygenation.... i tried to set it up that way so hopefully they continue doing well ... only time will tell, i see your goonch is continuing to get huge! such cool fish

Can you elaborate on this? Curious how one goes about achieving above average oxygenation........
 
Ive used a car jack to raise a tank to level it with good luck. I would deff reccomend leveling the tank. It will make your life alot less stressful.

Everything looks great cant wait to see it stocked

thats funny, thats exactly what i was thinking of using, and yeah your right, looking at the overflows would just drive me crazy! in fact it already is and i havent even got fish in it yet! lol!

i put a stronger air bubbler in this tank, and although i havent calculated the functional amount of flow in the tank, on paper it has a much higher return rate, thus my tank cycles through more times per hour through the trickle filter, thus oxygenating the water more ... "in theory"
