Hi I'm new to the site and new to fish keeping. I have a 60 litre tank at the minute, just after finishing cycling it and in the process of stocking it. 2 tetras 3 catfish and a Pleco at the minute.
I have another 60 litre tank in the attic and I was thinking of setting the two up side by side connected by a siphon or aqua bridge. Each tank has their own cartridge filter and heater. I would like to keep the water in both tanks the same so I want to pump from one tank to the other. The water would then flow through the siphon into the first tank again meaning it would be like one body of water.
I am wondering has anybody here done this? And what flow rate would I need to be pumping between the tanks?
Also if anybody can see any potential problems with this set up?
Thanks
