On a serious note . Have you thought of trying to put Dovii in this tank ? With the space there is a chance it could work . In theory it would prob only be the jag that he may dislike. Have you booked few days off work to get it up and running ? I would not be happy unless I had at least 2 days to sit and watch on completion . Do you worry about cycling ? I don't never have and never lost any fish always use some old tank water and filters and overwater change for first month then stick to a 30% once a week . how will you water change ? Hose in syphon out ? That's my way but it drops temp few degrees but if anything the fish thrive and kicks breeding mode in as eggs often day after change . I can see some serious YouTube vids coming up Please!!!!

I won't attempt my larger Dovii in this tank (he is just intolerant of other fish full stop)but I do have another smaller one I am going to try. Cycling won't be an issue. I will be transferring the filters along with other tank decor etc at the same time I move the fish . Water change is hose in, syphon out. I have a drain just next to the tank. I currently use 3/4" hosing but I will go larger diameter to get the water out of this puppy quicker. When refilling, I always match the incoming water temp to that of the tank. As far as work, I work for myself so time off is not a drama:D
