So I have an old 100gal tank that I used as a terrarium for a couple years that I want to redo as an aquarium and upgrade from my 50 to the 100.
My questions are, it has an odd chunk broken off near the corner, that did not go all the way through or leave spiderwebbing of any sort but could damage like this cause some structural integrity I should worry about?
Next is the middle cross support piece broke in half and so there's nothing holding the middle together, should I replace that? And how would I go about doing so?
Now for the actual setup questions, I currently run a 75 and 50gal sponge filter on my 50gal and I have 3 Cory cats and 2 discus that are both about 4-5in and do probably a 98% WC twice a week. Now I was wondering with that setup could I get away with 3 or 4 WC a week at 50% and put some more discus in without polluting the water?? I do construction 10 hours a day 4 days a week and doing a WC when I kick my boots off when I get home can sometimes be the last thing I want to do so i definitely do not want to over populate lol.
