Aquarium Advice Regular
Ok,I have a 55 gallon long with 2 Marineland Emperor 400s on it.What I have noticed is that every one of my fish hang out on the bottom of the tank.At first I though maybe it was the light,its a marineland LED 36" singlebright,but I noticed a small pond snail caught in the current and watched him as he was thrown all over the tank in a large circle,from top back,to top front,to bottom front,to bottom back and then top back again.He must have made this journey 8 times before finally resting on one of the filter intakes.
My stock is as follows.
5 Emerald Cory cats
4 Clown loaches (largest is about 2.5-3 inches)
8 red eye tetras
2 longfin tetras
3 albino bristlenose plecos
and 2 fiddler crabs,a male and a female.
Could the output of my filters be basically pushing everything to the bottom of my tank,and with my stock list,would cutting it to one filter be enough?I have a 75 gallon goldfish tank in the front room with one emperor 400 on it and was thinking of taking one from my 55 and putting it out on there since the goldfish are notably larger ,could use the extra filtration and wouldnt be affected as much by the current.
Thoughts?
