Re: Filter Recommendation
It was seeded with a spare filter sponge from one of my existing tanks. I am being very careful, I am too fond of the little creatures to do anything else.

Re: Filter Recommendation
Finally got the 275 l (72 G US) tank, as the larger one wouldn't fit on the table. Got the biggest internal filter I could find, Interpet 250. The tank came with an in-hood trickle filter, but no pump. Bought a pump and managed to connect it up (don't you just love tank repair silicon?). Seems to ha...

Re: Filter Recommendation

Filter Recommendation
I am about to get a 275 or 330 l tank for my young golden weather loaches and their mates (depends which I can fit in my car) and I am looking for recommendations on suitable filter types. I have only had internal filters before, but given the bigger tank is it time to go external? Is the UV option ...
