Aquarium Advice Addict
Hey all, as the day comes closer where I will have my canopy and stand complete, I want to be more sure of the fish I will get... so here we go to specs, and you tell me your Opinions on what you think would best suit the situation
Specs:
- 45G tall
- Filtration: XP3 (mostly ceramics and filter foam and floss) and a tetra tec pf150 (filled with two bags, one of ceramics and the other zeolite). This creates a pretty decent current on the surface (by the Tetra tec) but I have the spray bar of the XP3 pointing straight down, so as not to interfere or more on the point blow away the fish
- Substrate: Aquarium sand (have up to 50 pounds but will see how much to put in soon)
- Lighting: 65 watt mogul based compact Flo's by LoA (pretty bright, not as hot as you think either) with a cooling fan on top (which also has a circular blue cc tube for moonlight lighting) 8O
- Environment: Two pieces of driftwood decently large (good caves) with Java fern attached to them. The water can be brackish if needed be, or just plain freshwater. I can have pvc piping siliconed with sand to make hiding places if needed, but depends on whats best for the fish.
- I would perfer a solitary fish (or maybe two), thats aggressive enough not to hide everytime someone passes by. If the fish is solitary.. wouldn't mind it being able to grow about 6 inches or so, but if two then best to keep it about 4-5 inches each.
Thanks everyone for reading!
