  • Updated pics of 240. Fish/lighting/water change PIC HEAVY!!!

    So this weekend I did some work. I upgraded the bulbs for my vho lighting to 110 watt bulbs. The tank looks great. I also made shelves for the ballasts and organized all the wiring. here are some pics of that and me doing a water change.

                            I wouldn't even worry about that sump right now . You have "more than enough" filtration for the number of fish that you have in that tank .
