Simple sponge filter to collect goldfish poos 5. Wooden air block for aeration 6. 2 4.5" to 6" ranchus Is it possible to brew green water in 2ft tank rather than tub? I've all the equipment with me except the PL lights which I've yet to collect from a bro who help DIY PL lights.

Let see your questions ...
QUOTE Is it possible to brew green water in 2ft tank rather than tub? YES. QUOTE Will switch on the PL lights non-stop for 3-4 days or until the green water turn dark green? Possible. BUT ..... I shoot liao hor. 50L for 2 fish of that size ? U gotta be kidding. 1 3" fish at most. At least 50L min per fish and that's still a miserable little room to make some mistakes. Okay, it's up to you to try out. Anyway, I also using 2ft tank, but larger width, at 70L for 2 demekins. Close monitoring needed to prevent any problem faced as the water darkening. Green water itself is already a natural filter, why add something to compete. No filter needed. Collect poo for wat ? Wood type air block is for marine setup. Use normal ceramic or plastics type for freshwater lah. |
