2 gph pump

I seem to recall there was a discussion a while back regarding a very small pump. Basically it moved 2 gph through essentially air line tubing. Does anyone remember this or do you know of a product that can do this? I'm trying to put together a continuous drip system the drips into my quarantine tan...

I have two 2028 eheims, and roughly 1500-2000 gph in central filtration on the tank, and two Taam Seio 2600's...

So the tank is marketed as a 265 gallon with roughly 6000-7600GPH turnover, so over 20x turnover or so.

Dithers

What would everyone suggest as dithers and upper level swimmers for a 7 foot x 2 ft x 30 in tank with 30-40 young clowns as the main attraction?

I've done tiger barbs but I don't think I want to go that direction with this tank.

Great Photo's.

What is the water temp in that river currently? I'm just curious what the conditions are in the wild for these fish.

Thanks.

Considering I'm adding 5200 gph for water movement to my 265's it should definitely be a good time had by all.

Only thing I'm not sure of is whether to shut them off at night or not.

Broke down and got 4 of the Taam Seio 2600's. Wasn't a bad deal at all.. Total order came to $98.91 including shipping... I had VIP points with Big Als and they price matched someone elses deal... so for $25 a peice the deal was hard to beat. Merry Christmas to my fish. I have two 265 gallon tanks t...

Taam Seio M2600 or Two Hydor Koralia 4 - 1200GPH

For my 265 gallon 7 foot tank... which one of these two options would you pick and why? Hydor does have a guard for the Koralia 4 so fish safety isn't an issue. Taam Seio M2600 or Two Hydor Koralia 4 - 1200GPH I'm looking at ordering soon as a Christmas present for my fish... so all opinions are wel...

The other thing to consider is almost all of the experienced loach keepers here have had a disaster along the way and lost prized fish. Unfortunately things happen... So be careful going into loach keeping with the thought that you will not have problems at all.

The BN seems to have just about as many supporters as Albert does.
