Description:
Custom made 6x2x2. I use a single 4ft T8 fluro 10,000K (Homemade) (Next on list to update), Filtration includes 9sq.ft of UGF with three 2000lt/hr powerheads as well as as Sacem Marathon 2000 cannister that includes extra coarse (custom) inserts too increase biological filtration. Heating is taken care off by 3 200w stainless steel viaAqua heaters.
Advice:
Don't rush to add fish to your tank, make sure it is cycled properly. Buy as much filtration as you can afford. Buy only fish that a compatable with your tank and it's set up. Also only buy good, clean, colorful stock. A little bit of extra money here saves much disapointment later.
