all you need is a good amount of surface agitation then you dont need air stones in your tank anymore...
Yeah gasping would be the biggest indicator, other than that you may start to get some surface sludge(very unlikely)Bizzaro;1084572; said:
Is the fx5 on the 240g? What else is on there? Or is it on the 60g?
EDIT: I read back threw it and know what you mean. With an Fx5 and two pumps rated at 60g's all pointing up and across the surface is more than enough. Although it might be enough surface agitation but not nearly enough filtration, expesially if you are keeping monsters.
Like all the above, surface aeration is best. I use my bubble bar to mostly for decoration but also to create a second current. It's mild and the fish dont have to swim against it.
I didnt like the look of my bar so I went to WallyMart and got some cheap plastic grass, cut it and siliconed it to the front of the bar. Made a huge difference in the background appearance. I have a black background so I used black airline tubing. Hope this helps some.
