http://dfmlo8oja8g1e.cloudfront.net/11442/product/giant/500536.jpg I'm going to be running two of these but they are rated at 350gph and they are for up to a 75 gallon tank each. I had a realization that maybe my sponge idea isnt so great. Will it work with these filters?

So are you saying put in the seeded media and then put in the tetras immediately? I know I'm asking again but I'm wanting to do the best thing.

125 gallon. I plan on getting kuhlis and 2 pair of fork tail blue eyes. Also maybe a school of about 12 Cardinal Tetras.

Thank you for the info but I still have another question. How well would it work if I had him stuff two appropriately sized sponges in his filters to collect bacteria while I'm out of town. Would this work?

Okay when you say immediately you mean right then and there? Also I bought two penguin power filters with bio-wheels. What exactly do these do?

Well my tank is empty now, still waiting on my filters and heaters to arrive. Then I have a week of vacation to Florida. So after the end of the year, I'll get started on everything. My lfs sells the api test kit for like $17. I'll go pick one up as soon as possible, and my gfs dad has several...

Also no on the test kit question. I didnt see the point of buying one til I need it.

No I get the cycle but I dont get all the numbers and exact measurements. Its literally a new language to me.

My only issues with a fishless cycle is time needed to do this and all the technicality's. Its a big scientific process that looks like a foreign language to me.

Okay but what about the bacteria in a bottle? I've not heard any issues with it.

I've had my tank sitting empty since early October, now I'm waiting on the filters and heaters, now im being told its gonna be another month!? There has to be another way without the long drawn out procedure when I talk to my gfs dad he has never done a fishless cycle and his fish are healthy as...

Okay. What are some different ways to go about making my tank fish ready? (As far as cycling goes.)

No worries. I'm just trying to do the right thing.

Corys and Kuhlis arent good together. Competition for food and what not.

I will be setting up a 150g tank, dimensions:48 x 24 x 31. I want to put a pair of GBR and around 6-7 kuhli loaches. I want something that is slightly bigger or a pretty "uncommon" smaller schooling fish that is compatible. All advice is appreciated, good or bad.

Do you know how they are with Kuhli loaches and plants?

I haven't got the tank set up because I'm trading my 125g long for the 150g tall, reason being my gfs dad needs a longer tank for his arowana. I'm going to use black sand though.

Do rams harem or do they pair?

I'm so picky. A few more trips to my lfs and I may make up my mind.

I thought about Discus but the price tag on them is to high for me to comfortably buy them. I'm new to bigger tanks and every fish other than loaches and female betta sororities.

Are Saulosi good with Kuhlis? How are they with live plants?

I have such a hard time deciding. I was thinking of going a Saulosi only tank. Are they aggressive towards Kuhlis?

There is no worries of it falling through no but over time it may start sagging and bending the the tank and what not. It happened to my uncle.

No, I live in a single story duplex with concrete foundation. My tile should be able to disperse the weight if it was done properly.

I would also love to know if there are any cichlids that would have a good temperment with kuhlis?
