Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hello all! I found out about this forum about a month ago and pretty much been trying to read everything that deals with me. This is my first "major" tank and I've been going at it very slowly....it's been 6 months now and I finally put gravel in it last weekend. Slow but sure! I really want to do a SW tank but the only tank I've done so far is a half gal Betta Bowl, so I'm taking everybody's advice and going FW. I bought a 135gal glass tank(72"X16"X24") not exact dimensions. I won't be doing real plants-heard that can be tough.
Well on to my ?uestions and sorry that it's one of those "is my setup good" questions but I really don't want to mess up! Then at the end I have a powerhead question.
Tank - 135GAL about 72"X16"X24"
Filter - 2 Emperor 400 HOB Spaced out at the 2' and 4' marks of tank
Heater - 3 Whisper heaters 200W upto 60GAL placed at 1'/3'/5' parts of tank
Thermometers - 2 stick ons at each corner along the bottom
I will be using an UGF with some powerheads I just don't know which ones are good ones. I think I might of messed up on the heaters because I've been reading that Jaber heaters are the way to go. I'll have to see if I can take the Whispers back. Are the Rios good and what would fit my setup? The UGF is in three parts so I would like three of them.
Thanks and sorry so long,
