I have a 10g tank and a dual sponge filter, like the one in the picture below. Can anyone recommend a good air pump?

I'm currently cycling a 33g long, tank dimensions are 48"X12"X12". My plans for the tank are 10 glowlight danios, 10 cherry barbs, 6 peppered cory's, and and an albino bristle nose pleco. I'm looking for a center piece fish, any one have any recommendations?

6 celestial pearl danios, 2 scarlet badies, cherry shrimp, zebra nerites, and your choice of color on ramshorn snails.

I tried one on a 5g and was disappointed. It didn't have a lot of power and developed a leak after a couple of months. I'd look for an Eheim 2213 or API Filstar XP2

Betta, pair of scarlet badis, or shrimp. I'd go with just the Betta, that's a big bioload with the corys.

I second the Odyssea for a budget canister. I used 2 stacked Hydro 5's on the intake. Worked like a champ for 3 years before the motor went. It's basically a big bucket of sponges, there's no trays. I use an API XP-L now. If I had to choose between the 2 I'd save up the extra money and go...

Whatever tray the water enters first use a 30ppm sponge filter then a 20ppm sponge filter. Don't use a water polisher like polyfill because it clogs up to quick. Fill the rest with biological media. Put your Chemi-pure, Purigen, etc on top. I use the Cermedia balls with Fluval Biomax filling...

Make sure it doesn't have an anti mold or flame retardant sprayed on it.

Can you get Krylon Fusion over there?

Aquatic Liife Edge and Marineland Advanced have built in timers and moonlights.

under 6 inches 1, over 6 I use 2.

I use osmocote+ root tabs, replace every 4 months, place them 6 inches apart, and try to stick them about an inch from root feeders.

How's the electrical work going? I know it's a little late in the game, but for individual switches for each socket there's DJ power strips Amazon.com: American Dj Pc-100A Rack Mount Power Switcher: Musical Instruments They're not GFCI so you have to either use a GFCI wall outlet, they're...

I'm not a big fan of plecos. Could I do the bumblebee instead of the pleco?

It got 45 here today. It got down to 12 above but no snow. I had to scrape my car windows this morning from the frost.
