Aquarium Advice FINatic
We bought a new tank last night off of Craig's list. aquadvisor thinks that it's 208.7g but we were told 160. Any way to be sure with out using buckets? It's 72 inches long, 24 inches high and 24 inches deep. We bought two marineland emperor 400 filters. We have everything running, but I forgot the ammonia so I wi buy it tomorrow and officially start fish less. I took some fake plants out of my 30g and we added the substrate. I'm very impressed with the noise level of the filter. Sounds like a water fall.
Any ideas for a stock list? We are very interested in angels but open to suggestions. It is going to be a heavily planted tank with co2. Our 30g is thriving with the set up even with crappy lights so with the big tank we are going to go all out on LEDs--we think.
History: it all started with the failed pond attempt and the two male guppies who needed-deserved a good home. Craigslist=instant 30g tall. Ended up with a sick guppy a week later so we got a 5g to cycle for hospital tank. Some one heard we were in to tanks and handed us a used 3g betta cube thing (no betta inside), and now we are drowning in danio fry and ghost shrimpettes. Some how 160g sounded like the answer. Except haha it's not. We aren't sticking fry in the 160... Sigh. My name is Emily and I have a problem.
