Just have the intake for your canister filter close to the bottom. I kinda ghetto rigged one myself using the old intake tube.

I'm so very proud of my self today. I saw a 6" thinbar dat going for about 20US AND a korean perch that was going for 4US and i didn't get either. No space.. I did redecorate my snakehead tank tho.

the one you saw was most likely siniperca chuatsi, yes, pretty cheap in hong kong, we have them for dinner at times :)

Korea perch is siniperca scherzeri, rarely if ever exported out of korea, which it is endemic to, and banned from export.

There are a few similar species from China, which you might see in hong kong from time to time, like siniperca whitei, and others you'll never see!

I envy your restraint. I need to learn that.
 
Li i do have a canister filter. I'm looking into getting another one.

I guess that wasn't a Korean Perch coz if i saw it for 4 bux then it most definitely isn't it..


fugupuff. I heard on the radio over xmas that in about 2 years the whole of tung choi street fish shops are gonna close down. I am praying it doesn't...
 
Those are some cool pearch.
