how about now

Built a wet dry sump. It works great. Problem is at least once a week it over flows my tank. I know I could have less water in the return tub but the trickle sound drives me crazy. Any ideas on why I am losing siphon in my over flo? or what I could do to stop this from happening?

Yes there are some I have been eying at Menards that are real cheap. My worry is I have to empty my tank. Move the tank. Set the tank back up. Get the water back to the right perimeters. Then add the fish. Just sounds like a lot of moving parts. It scares the heck out of me. Over night power...

I have an assortment of Cichlids in a 110 gal tank. I am buying a new house and will be moving. You would think I would be freaking out about the school districts and my mortgage payment but no. I need to know how I will move my 20+ fish from point A to point B. I have a 55gal but my son's...

I got home from work to find that my cichlids had broken the hanging thermometer inside the tank. Should I be freaking out as much as I am?

I have a Fire eel in a mbuna 120 gal tank. I am not sure if the fire eel is eating. I have blood worms but if Im not sneaky dropping them in they get eaten before they hit the bottom. Any ideas of things my cichlids wont eat that my eel will?

They are tough to see by design. They were painted black to mix with the sand and the background.

Its in the tank and looks great and my fish love it.

sorry cant identify I cant even seen the shape so I cant even tell you if is mbuna or a hap. If I had to guess it kinda looks like an electric blue hap.

The thing about filtration is that there is no such thing as overkill. Your 306 would be enough the 406 would be better. If you are really want to get great filtration and save a little build yourself a sump. This site has some great DIY links or look on youtube.
