Hi all,
I have recently purchased a second hand 130d, whilst I love the tank, the skimmer sounds like a tank!
I am thinking of upgrading to the tunze 9002 and wondered if there is a noticeable in noise?
Anyone how much would be too much in regard to flow rate in my tank.
Currently got the standard 2 that come with it, looking to upgrade 1 now. Would 1400 lph be too much?
Thanks
Thanks both. I won't be putting anything new in until the quality of the water is sorted. I will have the lfs check it in a couple of weeks time after a few water changes and go from there.
Appreciate your help. Cheers
Maybe it's more a case that the quality of water is just too poor for them? Everything that is in the tank has been there for a long time and would be used to the conditions a little more? Or perhaps the stress of being in the bag for too long has not helped?
Wow that many? Over what kind of period would I need to spread that across?
I've tried to be very thorough with acclimatisation,drip a little water in every 20 minutes or so for 3-4 hours. I was going to put it down to the previously high salinity.
So had the water tested today;
Ph - 8.0
Nh3 - 1.2
No2 - 0
No3 - 15ppm
Po4 - 0.25ppm
Salinity - 1.027
Ammonia is very high but hopefully with plenty of water changes I'll get the healthy tank I want.
Thanks Craig.
The water is changed weekly, the tank is 94 litres and I'm taking out roughly 12 litres each time.
All of the fish, including the cardinal are/seem very happy and active in the tank.
Thanks
Hiya,
All the water I have put in the tank has been ready mixed salt water that I have bought from my local shop. Given that that is correct the salinity was probably even higher!
I will be getting the water fully tested at the shop this weekend so I will have definite readings later.
I will...
