Hey Guys,
I have had my 8x2.5x2.5 set-up with 2x 2217 and a 2215 for about 8 months now and I am not happy with how the tank looks.(Water test results are fine, its just looks untidy with 3 inlets, 3 outlets and capped holes everywhere)
Stocked with about 60 malawi's, too many species to list.
I have been on the lookout for cheap tanks aound where I live and have found a 6x2x2 with 10mm glass for $60. The tank is badly scratched, but holds water 100% fine.
The 6x2x2 will fit in my cabinet with about 45cm from the top of tank to the top of my stand. (my stand is tall as a I don't like having to stoop down to look at the fish. I'm 6"7'.
The 8x2.5x2.5 has 4x 2 inch holes drilled in the top and 4x on the bottom(each corner 2 spread out evenly in the middle) , they are threaded and just have caps covering them at the moment.
My LFS has agreed to mind my malawi's if I do decide to convert to a sump. Favour for a regular customer.
Is a 6x2x2 to big as a sump on my size tank?
