:) G'day I recently picked up a 6x2x2. I would like to sump it and also have 2 Discus breeding tanks beneith.
I was thinking of making the sump myself dimensions L80xW60xH50 around 240ltrs. the reason its not so deep will be to make for easy access to the filtre media.
This leaves room for 2x Discus spawning tanks beside the sump which I can build 50x60x50 that will be 150ltrs each. I dont no if this is to big for beading tanks? Do you think the fry with have trouble finding there parents?.
The big 6ft will be used to grow out about 25 young discus to adults. Then I would like to plant it with all the goodies like powerful lighting and CO2.
I will have lots more ?'s to come as I go. I thought I better get some opinions before I built the sump and tanks.
Cheers.
Todd
