juwel trigon 350

[cichlid2006]

ok i would like (meaning the wife wants) to get a juwel trigon 350 http://www.discount-pond-supplies.co.uk/Trigon_sizes.htm
the fish that will be going in are a placid male GT, 2 uaru A., 6 clown loaches, 6 filament barbs and a bristlenose.
question, will this work for life or should i stick to my 5x2x2?
many thanks.

A 5x2x2 would be better, since it is a lot bigger. I think the 350 liter one would work though.

thanks for the reply mate. i think i will try another couple of forums just to see if someone has done something similar or the same thing before i decide. nothing against your advice but i like to pool as much info as i can together before i make a final decision. but i will most likely stick with the 5ft. thanks again for your help.

Why are you thinking along the trigons lines? I had a 190 and it filled a purpose, I really only had room for a corner tank at that time. Corner tanks dont really offer much swimming space.

the look of them mainly. i was just curious if it would work. but its looking more along the lines of the 5x2x2.

I have a 450 Vison but tbh I think it will be my last Juwel tank. Juwel, in their wisdom, are now supplying tanks with thier High Lite system. These are T5 lighting in a non specific size, tubes are only available in Juwel Sizes, spectrums and from juwel stockists only. Anyone whoz owned a Juwel tank will tell you the first thing they do is throw the juwel tubes away and replace them, usually with Triplus tubes. If I do buy a Maufactured tank again it will be from Rena.
