After about a two year hiatus, we cleaned out the 90, gave our discus a better home and picked up 16 F1 Red Rainbows from the very WC colony I sold two years ago when I got out of Trophs.
We're taking our time with this batch, nice and easy. Just thought I would share:
I'm running an Eheim 2262 with a Hydor K4. That gives me about 2100 gph flow, or 23x turnover. Granted, after head pressure and filtration friction loss it's lower, but still well over the 10x mark. I have heavy surface agitation with the 2262 spray bar so for now I'm not going to bother with a wet/dry.
I scaped with tried and true Leslie's PFS and Texas holy rock. I've got a few plecos and some assassins in the tank as well. The only thing left I want to add at this point are some Ulwile fry.
Many thanks to Mgarrido for all your help getting us back in the Troph game!
