the tank is 40'x18'x26'.about 65 gallons(uk).i have 30 litres of aquatic soil under 25kilos of sand substrate, some bogwood and some york stone, along with various plants.i am running an eheim 2213 and a fluval 404, which i am about to change to a eheim 2226 proffessional.i also have a 300w heater a large air pump and an ozonator in use..water had a nitrite spike on day 2,but with frequent water changes and re-seeding filters from my koi pond all seems well now
