pimp my tank!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
bro do not put some janitor fish in your tank..one day you'll be seeing it floating or gone..australian aro is very aggresive one..unlike the silver or asian aro..and dont use ungergravel filter..use a powerhead filter
 
undergravel filters are becoming obsolete. i think youre asking for trouble if youre relying on this as your sole form of bio filtration. all they do is trap gunk in your gravel. upgrade filtration first, decor later
 
i have a powerhead filter.. my problem is how do i keep the sand clean.. i cant put the powerhead filter close to the bottom because it will suck the sand.. probably anyway..:headbang2 haven't tried that..:) but if my logic is correct, it would go that way.. my problem is how to keep the sand and the ornaments clean.. :eek:
 
Just skim the sand, don't put the vacuum into it.
 
i still haven't found sand yet but the idea that always comes to mind is beach sand.. maybe a bad idea though.. that is still his temporary tank.. im still saving for a tank that will be his lifetime tank..Ü somebody recommended eheim canisters.. is it good when paired with a my current powerhead? bought one by the way.. powerhead that is.. and i'll get rid of the janitor.. =)
 
me idea of the tank decors right now is the sand and driftwood.. cant find any good plants here, if any exists by the way.. =) i know that to vacuum the sand is the first solution but i would be happy if there are any easier ones.. lol..
