30 gallon office tank
- Thread starter Mr_Harrys
- Start date
A couple of updates. Changed the filter to a Oase Biomaster Thermo 350. I know it's an overkill but at 40% discount i had to get it 
))
Due to lack of space i had to place it on the side of the tank. It works fine, i even had to set the outflow to minimum. In order to make it start without issues i had to fill the canister with water (a bit over a half). I love how silent it is. I rearranged the baskets inside as follows (from bottom to top):
1. sponge basket
2. sponge basket
3. mix of ceramic balls and rings (from the previous filter), i got rid of the plastic balls that come with the filter
4. new bags of Seachem Zeolite and Purigen
5. the red sponge basket

And you should enter your cat in our December Pet of the Month contest.

Houston we have a problem....
An acquaintance discovered that a 10 gallon tank with a beta is too big for a bristlenose pleco. He had it for a bit over 2 years. And he gave the pleco to me. The other option was throwing him in a nearby lake. Which is a big no no, so i took the fish. And because i don't have another tank he went to the community one that i have. I added a some Rio Xingu stones from Dennerle and some river rocks and also some wood to make a small cave. He went and hid in the back in the rotala bush. 6h in and he didn't uproot a plant. Fingers crossed he'll behave. Already ordered some Dennerle Dennerle PlecoMenu, it should be here monday morning.
Now he's chillin' on the glass behind the Alternanthera. 100% he's a male but I have no idea what variation of Bristlenose he is.
