Hi Everyone,
A slow Sunday here so thought I would post up some photos (who doesn't like photo's right?) of my tank. I also wanted to ask a fish ID on the brown/red discus with the black mood bars "Bruce", he is my favourite even though he is not the brightest or prettiest for some.
Current tank setup is 6x2x2 running 2 FX6 filters, with both outlets at one end, and both inlets at the other. I find this works well to push the water one way, and surface of the water is always clear etc. I also run 3x air stones, and an internal filter for polishing, that usually has Purigen in it that gets swapped out at least once a week. Current maintenance schedule is 50% daily WC ( sometimes more if I'm bored) which involves a siphon to suck all the crap off the BB tank. I just have white vinyl under the glass. I also run filter socks on the inlets to the FX6's which get changed daily, as they get dirty really quickly!. Most of the fish are 5" plus, with a couple in around 4" and big Bruce at about 7" currently.
Hope you enjoy and thanks for reading!
