NEW MONSTER : Another Monster Journey : Setting Up Monster 600 Gallon

[Eric A]

Ive actually seen a 180 full of god only knows how many tetras it did look awesome lol

On the Back to Nature backgrounds website there is a few demo tanks and one is an 8'x2.5'x2' and it has 1800 neon tetras LOL, Thats way over kill.

You think your Barras will try to chase and eat a Neon Tetra? Are they ambush predators? or will they chase their prey?

Throw in like 1000 tetras in their first =-) ... that would look tight.

they will be sucked up by the intakes... quick!

High-Density Polyethylene Strainers $6.65 - 13.90

when you have a pump that does 5000 gallon per hour.. its better to have a strainer to protect the fish from being vacuumed to the intake...

Much better material for a video

seeded or not... still takes time..

So the thread about "cycling in a day" is inaccurate?
