[@anglersitch]

Yeah, those are the results of adding Tren and small weights to the tank😆

[@dorianstovall]

Man, I really appreciate this video!!! Thank you and I am a subscriber now! Will probably be asking for some tips in near future

[@anglersitch]

Welcome aboard! Thank you for your support!

[@madjidaiche993]

Hi dude! Nice job I would suggest you to add a skimmer! 👍

[@anglersitch]

Thank you!

[@treystroup9277]

Nice work Ben! I like your design & the thought you put into it. Simple and functional!

[@anglersitch]

Thanks buddy! It’s my new favorite addition!

[@PopPopJoe]

Very nice build! I built one almost the same. My bio filter is a plastic 55 gal drum. My tank is outside. I have 7 sunfish in there to get the bio going in the filter. In one week tank turned PEA SOUP GREEN. I now put a roof over tank to block the sunlight, thinking that may help. Any thoughts on my build?? I want to keep gizzards in there.

[@anglersitch]

Yeah the sun will turn it green like that. The roof should help. Also spray paint the outside of the tank black. You can also add a UV clarifier to get rid of the green water. You’re gonna want to keep that water as cool as possible for shad.

It took my tank about a month and a half to get my bacteria established. As far as chemical treatment, I found sea chem prime is a little more cost effective than the tetra brand stuff

[@anglersitch]

Nice! Good to know!

[@ShadyNationGaming]

How big of holes did u drill in the spray pipe? And how much was the 2500gph pump at harbor freight?

[@anglersitch]

There’s a link in the description for the pump. I paid $90.00 for it. I drilled 3/8” holes in the pipe.

[@Playin_Hooky]

How often do you change the filter material?

[@anglersitch]

I try not to. I don’t want to loose the beneficial bacteria that grows on it. I’m over two months now and havnt touched it.
