Wiener's 150g tall upgrade

[we4wieners]

OK, so, I currently have a 90g. Gonna transfer the entire set up over to a 150g.

Equipment:
2 Rena XP4's
36w UV Sterilizer
250w Jaegar Heater
24" Marineland double bright LED
Pothos plant roots

Livestock
1 Gymno Balzani
1 Satanoperca Mapiritensis
1 Satanoperca Jurupari
2 Geo Brasilliensis
6 Geo Tapjos (juvies)
2 BN Plecos
4 Clown Loaches
5 Albino Corydoras
1 Red Shouldered Severum
2 Blood Parrots
6 Buenos Aires tetras

I do 2-25% water changes weekly and clean mechanical filtration monthly. My BN pleco just laid a load of eggs and the severum is insanely obsessed with gettin to them. Anyway, I intend on changing over and only changing possibly the heater and lighting. I am up for any suggestions in regards to lighting. I like the minimal lighting idea.

So, thjis is the new tank. I painted the BG black and am currently throwin some primer on the stand and will enhance it with some trim out and finally finish with a full coat of bright white.

My only piece of advice was to say you should upgrade your heater, but I see you have that covered! My 300 watt Jaegar can't heat my 150 (and it's even a plywood tank) - I had to add a 200 watt in the sump!

Did you go with a completely submersible heater? I used one in my saltwater sump, but never in such a large tank. I am not sure if its beneficial to go submersed or not.

Final paint coat. Still considering adding some design trim.

Add another heater, I use (2) 300 watt heaters on my 125 and my 150

I like the footprint of the 150g tall, aquascape also looks very nice!
