I have a 3 year old plain goldfish in a tiny 10g tank, I am picking up a used 37g that comes with the eclipse 3 hood filtration system. Any feedback on the hood? Reviews seemed pretty good.
I would like to add a black moor into the new tank as well as a few smaller fish. I ready Cory cats are one of the only tankmates for goldy's. Would this stock level be ok with this tank?
I would like some plants in the aquarium as well and have been reading about lighting, temp, and such for goldfish. I am curious how many plants should go in a 37g tank. I don't really want tons of plants, just to decorate, provide some hiding spots, and improve water conditions.
I plant to start the new tank with the plants in it. Can I use old tank water to set it up? I read ammonia is not good for planted cycling. Would using old water and substrate, filter media be a way to get it set up? I could use some of the OTC bacteria, enzyme products as well if they help.
Forgot to mention. I am going with this tank due to cost. I would like a larger one, but don't have the funds right now. I found the eclipse setup and stand locally for a very good price.
Thanks for your help, I appreciate it. My computer is broken at the moment and its hard to research everything on my cellphone.
Thanks again.
