Likoma Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Here is a quick video of our lowest maintenance aquarium ever. Both species of whiptails are breeding regularly although only the Royal whiptail youngsters survive the Cardinal tetras. All it takes to look after it is feeding the fish and the plants and a once a month water change. Thanks for watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexyay Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Oh my goodness !drool: !drool: !drool: Sturisoma aureum? Growing two out in the hope I get a female to go with my male - cool to see that the fry survive with the cardinals! Very excited to breed these guys Have certainly been recommended the 60D as a good video camera, so a +1 to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanityChelle Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 How would the poret foam do inside a Nautilus? Would having one or two trays of just the sponges work, or would it clog up after a while on the first section? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likoma Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 How would the poret foam do inside a Nautilus? Would having one or two trays of just the sponges work, or would it clog up after a while on the first section? It works great to replace the mechanical filtration in all canisters. IN fact Eheim is our manufactuers biggest customer. All mechanical filtration in a canister filter will block over time and needs regular cleaning to ensure filter efficiency is maintained and that clean water reaches the biological section. You can increase cleaning intervals by staging the mech filtration from a 10ppi and then a 20ppi. You could also gain the advantage of an HMF which would work as a pre-filter by placing a sheet of foam into the tank and position the inlet of the canister filter behind the foam sheet. The water would pass from the body of the tank water through the foam sheet and into the filter. Many of our customers operate this method.
