Yes, they are Aqua Clear 50's. You're correct they are 270 gph each. I thought the 50 meant 50 gph, not the recommended tank size of 50 gallons. The flow out of the nozzles, is like having two small garden hoses in the tank, which the fish sometimes likes to swim in. I mentioned the fish in...

Instead of an standard UPS, I have a car battery and a 800 watt inverter. I trickle charge the car battery to keep it maintained. If there's an outage, I hook up the battery and inverter. It will last much longer than a UPS which typically has just one or two small 8 amp hour batteries. It won't...

I have a 55 gallon tank, with an under gravel filter setup as well as a cannister filter (eheim ecco 2234). I have 2 aqua clear 50 gallon per hour power heads pumping water out from under the under gravel filter. The plastic trays for the under gravel filter sit about 1/2 off the bottom of the...

Actually I put in 30 gallons then added the dechlorinator and ammonia remover, that was there for a bit over 2 hours. I added 15 more gallons and then added more dechlorinator and ammonia remover (the proper amount) and let it sit for about 1 1/2 hours before moving the stuff and finally the...

No, always in the 55 gallon tank, however we only had two clown loaches along with about 8 other fish in that tank (I saw this from an old home video taken back in 1994).

I'll give it an hour for the chemicals to do their job. Should it be OK to transfer the fish back again? I assume I should monitor for ammonia for the next few days and do partial water changes if needed? Most of them have gone out of business and the remaining one doesn't have a tank large...

Thanks for the quick responses. I didn't clean the cannister filter (eheim ecco 2234), which has filter media in it, I just transferred it, and air pump, and a heater to the temporary 5 gallon tank. The cloan loach is a sole survivor of a tank my wife wanted to get rid of years ago. It's about...

I have an old clown loach about 5 inches long. There was a tan / biege algae problem with current tank (55 gallon show tank) so I transferred the fish and some of the original water to a 5 gallon tank, moving the air pump, heater, and a cannister filter (Eheim ecco 2234) that will have the...
