New Tank Score

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I got it friday night and set it up saturday. All day. The cleaning and lack of space was a whore. The hoses were filthy. Everything else was great but I cleaned it all with salt and vinegar anyway. After I set it up on the porch and filled it to test I went to the LSF and bought some seachem gravel for planted aquariums and a beautiful odd shaped piece of malaysian with a tunnel through it. Boiled the driftwood for 4 hours while I swapped the tanks out and hooked up the filters and tested everyting.

Every drop of water from my 12 went into the new tank along with the old gravel and 6 weeks worth of no vacuming buildup. In addition to the eheim 2213 cannister filter it came with I'm running a penguin 200b with the biowheel out of my 350b from my overstocked 55. Everything is still cloudy, but the stock look happy. Especially the clownloaches.


Man this thing is deep.
 
Good score! I never use media i get from others don't know whats up with it, and a thorough cleaning is always in order. Now that its all set up how about some pix!?!?!?
