Just Bought a 24 gallon aquapod, have some ???s

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Sure I would like a pic of yours thx. Im having trouble with finding a spot for the skimmer. Its suppose to fit in the back, but its going to be a really tight fit.

Any1 have any good websites?
 
Here a few pics of the tank. I added the nano filter done by current in the back and took out one of the two sponges, but it made the tak over heat. You could take one of the sponges out and put the skimmer in its place.

edit: it seems the pics are too large I will resize them.
 
Ok lets see if this works.

nice tank. nice quaker. Do you use a hydrometer or a refractometer. Should I upgrade the pump?
 
Is yours the 12 or 24 gallon aquapod. In mine their is a 1 big sponge and 4 bioballs. Is this the newer version?
 
Dont upgrade the pump it is the least loud one. Oh have you plugged your lights into the wall and turned the middle switch on? If its too loud, I will let you know how to fix it. Mine is a 24 gallon too. Now that i remember I cut the sponge in two, you can do the same just a a razor blade knife and it cuts right through. To the left of the sponge is where you will put the Chemi-pure elite too. That is really a must since your main filter is a sponge. Oh and I suggest putting this in I have it in mine and it really helps the water current. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3578+4585+15955&pcatid=15955

Oh and I use the Instant ocean hydrometer its not the best but it works.

Please let me know if you need anymore help. Setting up the tanks my favorite part :).
 
Ya its kinda loud. Ya the temperature is up. What should I get to lower the temp other than what you already suggested? Thx for the info

The only other thing you can do is get a chiller ($300)
 
Oh and how is that skimmer workin, is it making a lot of micro bubbles?
 
Havent put it in yet. I should cut the sponge in half and put it in there?
