i set up my tank tonight and i put my pacu in to acclimate it even more over night. i did a big water change because i didnt quite rinse the playsand good enough. so i had to clean the tank with my python until it was clear again and then i added more then half of the water out of my other 75 gallon tank so that i have some water with bacteria in it. i didnt have any more water conditioner until i grab my ray tomorrow so i will add some while im acclimating the ray with my airline drip.
it looks really nice, the sand colour turned out nice and natural looking and its pretty fine and shouldnt pose any problems like silica sand. i could have went the bare bottem method but one of the main reasons i want a ray is because they are amazing when they hide. so i needed to have sand for that
i will take some pics tomorrow night and get you guys to critque my tank set up.
here is the set up currently
1 75 gallon tank
1 AC500 filter
-heater not sure how many watts but it can handle the tank fine
-lighting is a water proof canopy shop light
am i going to need more filteration? i do once a week changes on all my tanks.
what is the highest PH rays can be kept at? and if its too high how do i lower the PH?
thank you all very very much for your help
