Aquarium Advice Freak
First order of business: anyone know an online retailer with a good selection of bulkhead fittings? I can't find the right size anywhere! The drilled hole is 1.5" and the pvc is 1.5". I don't want to use an adapter to go smaller on the pvc because it needs to handle a lot of flow! Any ideas?
Second, I've got the power filter running in the sump, so bacteria should grow on the sponges in the power filter. I'm then going to transport the filter to the quarantine tank, carrying the bacteria with it, and using existing tank water for the QT tank. I'll prolly have the fish in there for 3 weeks or more. How long do you think I should leave the power filter in the sump to grow/collect bacteria? A week? Thanks!
