I ordered the Rena Filstar XP2 and an air pump for my 55 gallon tank that will have African cichlids in it. I'm planning on getting an inline heater as well. (Good idea??)
So I've been researching substrates and I came across Eco-Complete African Cichlid Substrate - $19.99 for 20 lbs + s/h. I think I'd need 3 bags of this stuff. Anyone familiar with this? Is it good? I know the cichlids like a higher pH. Mine is normally 7.8 when I check it.
Or should I move to the cichlid section??
