filter size for panaque tank
Posted: 07 Dec 2003, 14:21
I have got a Gibbiceps and Panaque Nigrolineatus in a 36 by 15 by 18inch tank (about 35 gallons ) with a meduim external filter (eheim 2233, 5 watt rated at 500 litres hour ) with siporax medium and carbon and a ehiem small internal filter with sponge.There are about 12 other fish in this tank, tetras barbs and 4 angel fish.
After reading shanes reply to my last post I thought it may be a good idea to add a powerhead or large internal filter to give a stronger current. I thought a fluval 4 internal which has a 10 watt motor and rated at 1000 litres per hour would do the job.
I was just wondering if the flow rate would be too high especially for the tetras and angelfish ?
