    Tank Circulation Questions [New Question]

    Just found a spare Aqua One Powerhead:500 in a box downstairs from my coldwater tank (came with it when I bought it).

    Evaluate My Noobie Plan.

    Hi all, I've kept coldwater fish for a few years now but I want to try my hand at tropical freshwater. I am redecorating a room in my house and have some new furniture that I'd like to put a tank on. This neatly brings me to my first question; tank weight and stability. The furniture I want to...
