Aquarium Advice Activist
Hi, in this thread i will be needing some advice before i go and do this on my own knowledge alone.
I have been in and out of keeping tropical fish since i was young with my dad but since i have moved out and into my own place i have now i had my own aquarium(s) for 2 years now and i now would like to start a cichlid tank. In my current tank i have your typical livebearers with also a very well behaved betta and 5 golden barbs. This tank has been running smoothly, no problems at all.
So now i have decided that i would like to change this tank to a cichlid tank.
I have:
180L Juwel Vision
Fluval 205
Fluval 4+ Internal
I am purchasing a new external, maybe to run alongside the 205 as i dont need an internal. APS have a 2000EF model which has high ratings and awesome reviews. Any views on APS external?
how would i go about this change? start fresh? New cycle? etc...
I would appreciate the advice and help giving to me, AQ advice members have never let me down before.
Thanks, Arron.
