Description:
Mixed African Cichlid tank, 6 feet long by 18" wide by 24" tall. Lighting is All Glass lighting 2x25watts, 3 xp3 Rena Filstar canister filters with 1 Emperor 400 bio-wheel, NO CHARCOAL IN ANY FILTERS, lots of bio-media in all 4 filters.
Advice:
Take your time and DONT USE CHARCOAL!!!!(please read ahead as to why!!) If you decide to not use charcoal (and save a lot of $$), you MUST do at least a 30% water change at least once every other week. My tank is a little overstocked (they are African Cichlids!) and I do a 30% water change every week. They are breeding like crazy and it's the easiest tank to take care of.
