  • 135gallon Duboisi tank **UPDATED**

    Well here it is...This was recently housing largemouth bass and perch...but I got tired of seeing them not happy, so I put them in my buddy's pond and have set this up for a colony of 31 WC Katoto's, (7:24 ratio) arriving tomorrow from cichlidsandherps. tell me what you think.

      Awesome setup man. They are going to love it.

      MAke sure your filters are good for 31 (oops) fish arriving. you might want to feed extremely light for the first week or atleast watch Nitrites for first few days. Just a suggestion...

      Saw your brother tonight at the Stros' game. We lost totally sucked, but atleast it was extra innings and fireworks at the end of the night.

          should I get brighter lighting? Right now I have a 48" Coralife 4x65Watt PC with 2x 10K and 2x Actinic. I would love to get the 6ft Coralife..but they are so expensive.

            yeah, i would definatly upgrade lighting, i would atleast go wityht the 2x 36 twin tube T6 like on your other tanks, the lighting just looks to concentrated on the middle of the tank.

                  Yeah you need to get the 2262 up and running.. that is going to be close the most important thing you need to do before you get your fish.

                      I am thinking of selling 3-48" 4-65W Fixtures for like $200. 1 has- bad ballast on the actinic switch, 1-is a parts fixture that may have good ballasts though, and the last 1- has old bulbs and just needs repalced.

                      You interested?
