My cylindrical Tank

Whats your guys views?

 

Do you have some tinfoilbarbs in there @Shiroo

 

Hi Hein

Yis, tinfoil Barbs, silver dollars, parrotts and some malawis

 

Looks really nice, I like it!

How are you maintaining the tank? It is very deep!

 

it is deep but got a long gravel cleaner and the guy I bought it from had alot of cleaning stuff that reached the bottom. Because I am short, I get onto a chair and all is ok.

The best thing about it, is that it uses less space in the house

 

Looking good what is the tank volume??

 

Thats kewl, 1 of my fears are once i get a bigger tank that i wont be able to reach the bottom as i am also short lol

 

So, am intrigued... filter specs pls?

 

I have 2 internal filters one upright close to the bottom of the tank and a smaller one at the top. Both cascade filters

 

Nice tank, just think of that as a planted tank, with Vallis, sjoh, that will be a jungle!

 

@ shiroo Whats the volume of the tank, and the diameter.
I like the pot inside, gives a different feel.
With a tank this deep, I would be interested to know what depths specific spieces frequent the most?

 

One problem with this @Vez silverdollars,parrots,tinfoils and malawi's dont mix with plants.

 

280 litres, not sure of the diameter,
parrotts are usually on the top, barbs, silver dollars and malawis are noramlly swimming in the middle. Bottom of the tank is occupied by albino chilchids and dam i forgot the name

 

Convicts perhaps

 

yes convicts, they spawned twice already in the tank

 

Thats good bud, did the male build a nest as yet (moved some gravel with his mouth)??

 

Thats why i(personally) dont like them! But hey each to his own.

but its still a nice tank!

 

thanks Vez,

@Hein, No not yet, they seem to like the small pot that i have in there

 

Yes that will work too, hehe they are awesome fish, I like them alot. They do tend to get a bit agro but still very cool little guys.
