UPDATE! I have my tank set up. it's amazing. But I have been having flourite issues. I started rinsing mine and it was a giant hassle, so i took it back, or attempted to, the owner of our LFS who I trust told me that I dont have to rinse flourite and explained a way to do it without having a...

Yep, I am seeding with the bio wheels from my 125 and some of the substrate. I got some brown and red flourite, its gonna be perdy

So I should be expecting a considerable growth rte on my wolf? I am getting my tank Friday, getting my cat Saturday(I hope, our LFS recently caught on fire...ironic huh?, but everything is okay for the most part) and ordering my rainbow from massaggression next week for probably $30

Fort, I do appreciate your input, and by no means offer any disrespect in what I said, i have been talking to many people about this tank for some time now(its gonna be my pride and joy!). All is looking well for it, and someday...if you were correct and I do need a bigger tank, then I will...

actually, a rainbow wolf maxes out at 9 inches. which is fine for my tank. But thank you for your concern ;)

Yeah, idk....i dont think it will be an issue. I am buying everything small enough that they should co-exist. How fast do the Wolfs grow?

Haha, are the cats that aggressive?

I decided on getting 3 fish...2 eclipse cats and a wolf, i will probably put in the 2 eclipse cats when i fill the tank(maybe an hour afterwards) and let those suckers poop!

Ah, okay. I was just concerned with size, but they are maybe 5 inches where I am gonna get them from, and I am ordering my rainbow at 2-3 inches. so all should be well, and the cats will be big enough that the wolf wont even consider messing with them...right?

Thanks Mud, it's almost like you are starting over again, answering all these questions for me and what not. Should I stick with just 1 eclipse cat, or get two? I was planning on it being m wolf and a buddy just like yours with the bichir

I was planning on doing the fishless, and using the seed material from the donor tank, monitoring levels closely and then once it stabilizes getting my Eclipse cat and ordering my rainbow wolf

IDK, it could be a rhino, It would be way easier if you could see the face

okay, what about earth worms? I have seen some movies where they go bonkers for those, what will they eat? and what is good for them to eat? I know that is two totally different things

okay, well the only issue with the 1/4 stock rule is that I am only adding 2 fish :) should I just add the first fish the first day, and monitor the levels?

Okay, well I am at the same water source from my 125, which was not seeded. And it took about 2 or 3 weeks to be cycled completely
