L204's New Home...

Setup a river tank last night... The powerhead that's in there is an old little aquaclear 550 and provides nice current, but not enough so I ordered 2 Aquaclear 900's (160 US GPH) and those should be here shortly... Once I get the powerheads in I will introduce the L204 breeders there, hopefully see some results, who knows :) Its a neat little setup though, I think. Just thought Id share
