Hi folks,
I created an account to ask this, as I have searched youtube but have not really found any definite answers as to what sort of pumps/filters I need for this sort of build, and to be honest I have no real idea of what kind of water filtration/pumping equipment is required in an aquarium.
I am building a small aquarium that is going to have a spray foam waterfall feature. The tank measures 2x2x2, and the water level is only going to be slightly higher than a foot as I want the waterfall to be above water. My dilemma is how to find the equipment I need. My aquarium is going to only have 20 gallons at most of freshwater in it, and I plan on keeping small fish and maybe a frog or two.
This video is where I got the idea from, however there is no specifications as to what kind of equipment is being used.
What should I use for a water pump/filtration device? Do i need a pump and a filter to keep my water oxygenated and clean? I would like to use smaller equipment that is not battery operated and that I can conceal within the waterfall/rocks. I would also like to try to avoid ordering from online.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
