Hi there, am looking at buying one of these and wanting to swap out the internal filter for a canister type, which one do you have in the tank and what is it rated for? (Planning a Cichlid tank so am going to need a lot of filtration) Thanks! :)
Hi Bradley. I'm using a Fluval Plant 3.0. It's been an excellent light but I'm probably upgrading to a Twinstar soon. For the money though, the Fluval is great.
@Mohammad Matar honestly they are both really nice sizes to work with. I would base your decision on the space the tank is going in. If uou can fit the bigger tank easily I'd go for that. Just remember that a bigger tank means more soil, hardscape and plants so the cost is greater.
Great job!
i wishd id had aquarium and 7 dogs from amstaff to saint bernard
thank you for sharing!
how did you keep the send from disperse at the path area?
I used filter floss/wool wedged in the gaps in the rocks. This way the soil could not get through to the sand.
@@naturescaper201 thanks, but how did the sand stay stabile at the slop?
@@gabiarad82 so I have bags of alpha grog under the sand which helps it grip. You will need to add a little more from time to time too
Hi there, very nice scape. How many kilos of stones did you use? Greatings Hubert
Thank you. If I remember correctly it's about 25kg of Seiryu stone.

I'd recommend an external filter with a turnover of a 1000lpr at the very minimum.
@@naturescaper201 okay cool think I'll just bite the bullet and go with a fluval Fx4 because I'm afraid the 407 won't be enough... Thanks
Hey, what light do you use on the tank?

What is your opinion please
