Help getting started = 75 gallon
Hello everyone!
In a few weeks I'll be getting myself a new tank.
Its dimensions are: 48x18x22 (LxWxH). I think it's more or less 75 gallons right?
anyway, PLEASE HELP
I have absolutely no experience with a tank this big. My two tanks were really small compared to it (a 20gal and a 10gal.)
So what type of filter should I get?
Oh and if you have stocking ideas please suggest it. I'm open to all ideas.
Btw, I'm from a tropical country(Philippines)-if that helps.
P.S. I was thinking of having a planted tank. Though I'm not really that good in aquascaping.
But my real problem regarding a planted tank is that I can't seem to find any bulb that is suitable for the tank. The only thing available in our place is a T8 red/pink-emitting 15-watt bulb. So I'm thinking maybe I could get a bulb from a hardware store?would that be okay?
Sorry for all the questions. Thank you!
