Hey guys,
I'm hoping that I can get some feedback here, and I'm sure there might be threads out there discussing this, but I have a more specific question. So my house is getting Tented. It's bad business all around, but I have a 75G and a 120G that both have fish in them, and I unfortunately don't have friends in the hobby that would be able to house the large fish in my 120G.
Terminex is using Vikane gas for treatment, and they have said that the tanks can stay (if they must) but obviously a clean air supply is going to be needed. The "information" that they gave me for aquariums only says it would need air going to the tank(s) and a separate hose to move air out of the tank. Would the hose pushing the "used" air out need a pump as well? What size hose might I need? But most importantly, Can someone recommend an air pump that would be strong enough to move air from whatever crazy distance from the house to the tank that I will have to span? It has to be able to pump in clean air. Is there a non-aquarium air pump that would work? Help!
