    Confusion over filtration!

    Well I could do that but there's some axolotls that might be a bit put out getting kicked out their tank!! The other two tanks in the stack are inhabited so unfortunately that is not an option!!

    Awesome! That's brilliant, I will be getting one next payday methinks! Thank you all so much for your help and advice, will keep you updated how the tank goes and I'm afraid I will probably also bother you with questions again soon enough!!

    Confusion over filtration!

    Just had a quick scout online and it seems that Aquaclears are rated quite highly. I can get an Aquaclear 50 for between £30 and £40 and this does 750 lph and is rated for tanks up to 190L - would this be suitable or would I need to find one that does more? If it needs to be bigger then...

    Confusion over filtration!

    Ok, so this is looking easier than I thought then - one powerhead, one HOB and plenty of live rock and sand and all should be good! Should I stick with the filter media that I assume comes with a HOB, or should I remove it and replace with something else? Oh, and I just looked up the fish you...

    Confusion over filtration!

    Thats brilliant, thankyou so much for your help! If my maths is right then im looking at about 37lb of live rock which I think is about 16kg. This could take some saving up!! Thanks for your time and help on this. I know it will be a long while til im ready for any livestock but what kind of...

    Confusion over filtration!

    To be fair there is no reason why the tanks can't be moved, it just means draining the other two tanks down to do it, which I was trying to avoid to be honest!! So I could do powerhead at one end and an HOB at the other and this would provide me with filtration and enough flow? Would an HOB do...

    Confusion over filtration!

    Thanks for your reply, very helpful, but I may have some more questions...! Is HOB Hang On Back? It's not something I'm familiar with, and I don't think I would have the space, due to the tank being against the wall. I was planning on siliconing perspex at one end or corner of the tank to...

    Confusion over filtration!

    A few tanks

    Just to start off with here are a few, not very good, pictures of my tanks. Once I get a decent camera I will do better!

    Does this mean I'm a bona fide fish geek now?

    Thanks for the welcome! I will try and get some pictures up at some point although I do suffer from a particularly terrible camera on my phone! Apologies in advance for poor photography...! I have posted my question with regards to the marine tank upgrade so hopefully lots of lovely people can...

    Confusion over filtration!

    Hi! I am looking to upgrade my 20L marine tank to a 100L. The problem is that this tank is the top of a stack of three so I have no room to add a sump or have any kind of filter that needs space outside the tank. I am intending to section off one corner of the tank which will hold all equipment...

    Does this mean I'm a bona fide fish geek now?

    Well hello there! I have been reading through forums and taking advice and useful tips from them for many years but have never joined one until now. I chose this one as it was the one I got the best info from and I also would spend many a night just reading through forum topics. Yep, that's the...
