I am thinking of getting a Marineland Emperor 280 Filter System for a 29 gallon tank(filters 280 gph)
Will this be in any way too much ?
Will this be in any way too much ?
thanks I am thinking of getting 6 tiger barbs ,4 zebra danios and 2 scanvengers ..Any suggestion on the scanvengers? Also is the bio load ok?ferret said:Good filter, lots of power. It'll be fine. I've used Penguin 330s on 29 gallons (330gph) and never had a problem. I consider the Emperor 280 to be superior to the Penguin 330 so you'd be set for ANYTHING you want to put in that tank, just about.
ferret said:I'd suggest Green Emerald cories. I've just recently in the past month gotten these guys and they're amazingly active little fellows.
I would actually suggest against the Zebra Danios. I've had them for a long time and found they well..er.. Really don't add much but fenetic darting about. Give a consideration to the Serpai tetra (Also known as red minor) if you get green tiger barbs, or if you get the normal ones I'd just consider bumping them to 8 and not worrying about another fish. Tiger barbs are great, very active.
