Aquarium Advice Addict
I'm actually picking it up Sunday, I went to look at it today and I'm super stoked. Its flipping huge though. 7' long and I can't wait. I do have some questions though.
I've decided to go all hob filters (aquaclears) and I've heard some AQ users say they don't use carbon in theirs. What are some thoughts on this?
It is coming in a custom stand that I'm told was built for it but since the tank is all glass and filled with water, rocks, etc will be unbeliveably heavy so id like to do some reenforcements to the stand. Any tips will be soo helpful.
The tank is used and hasn't been in use for about 6 months. I checked the seal from about halfway up and all edges were good. Given the size should I reseal the whole tank just to be safe or if the seal is solid all the way around don't worry?
I have 2 100w heaters and a 150w heater. Will those be enough?
Finally my question is lighting. I'm going all fake plants and rock with driftwood and possibly some moss that I know ill grow in non co2/high light conditions. What should I choose that's going to give a nice show tank look? Also should I do moonlighting?
Any other thoughts would be much appreciated. Ill have pics up soon enough. And a stocking list.
