Description:
I have a 46 gallon bow front fish tank. Using rainbow rock and mopani wood for decor. I have a Fluval 405 canister filter for filtration. Aqueon 150 for my heater. I just replaced my air pump with a penguin 550 and 1150 powerhead. I learned powerheads are better than an air pump for oxygenation and water movement. Im using white silica sand instead of gravel.
