    Thanks, really happy with my tank at the moment, very low maintenance and keeps clean thanks to the type of fish in the tank. When the Angels are bigger they will be relocated to a new, much bigger corner tank. Cant wait to start working on the second tank.

    Hi Adriaan, what is the idea behind the upside down baskets?
    Remove the plant from the basket at the back and remove the fibre surrounding the plant... that fibre is harmfull to fish if it gets into their gills. :thumbup:

    Hi,

    I don't want to plant them as yet, getting the right plant soil this month hen ill remove them, haven't experienced any issues with the fibers damaging any fish but I've seen some videos, luckily not much of it in the tank though.

    Looks good man. Have you got the second tank yet? And where did you get that sponge cover for the filter inlet? Looking for a 25mm one for a Cascade 200 HOB, I've only seen like 10mm or 16mm..

    @RoGe I'll give you some details got it from a friend who bought a dophin HOB and didn't use it anymore, got the sponge on the cascade now, actually a nice tip, got a spongy one as well but its to dense and closes the suction on the inlet tip and decreases the flow to much.

    The sponge on is almost like a wire effect and not sponge at all, to give you an idea of how good it is, I only clean out my filter once in 2 months
