Great video! I over filter my tanks, but yours look great with less filtration. It costs less and makes less noise to do it your way. Beautiful tanks and fish, Evan.
Love it! I was expecting sumps but I love the HOB and fluval canisters! I personally went from hob, to fluval, and now I’m a sump/ sponge filter guy . Great to still see how effective HOB are!
Ridiculously Amazing fish room full of some picture perfect aquatic displays. Making more DIY videos for whatever you can think of would be my only suggestion . Especially if you are not going to move then hit record and " Bust it big " 😎
For the tanks without sumps, I would do over-tank sumps with lights, algae scrubbers. Put a bunch of cherry shrimp in sump with java moss.🦐🦐🦐 A display sump
Very cool video! I really like the fluval FX6. They are crazy expensive though so I started making my own sumps which aren't cheap but significantly less. Your malawi cichlid tank is so stunning. I want to get into african cichlids and your tanks are awesome inspiration. I dont even know all the species you have. Also love your giant gourami
Great stuff. If you ever have to go shopping for a large canister filter again check out the Aquael Hypermax 4500. Not too common in the US but they are now filtering in. Corny pun intented! They released just under two years ago in Europe. Blow the FX6 out of the tank. Aquael are a Polish brand and well respected over here. If searching for prices go for the basic version. The Wi-Fi/Bluetooth versions are far more expensive.
I have a 120 with a large eheim canister. Works Really good Just needs to get nitrates down. Also i cant get enough of the beautiful Madagascar cichlids! Please do more Videos ON those.
Interesting. Clearly, with canisters on those monster tanks, you are not turning over the tank volume the recommended 4-6 times an hour often recommended. I have an Oase biomaster 600 on a 340 litre tank, which I've worked out turns over the tank twice an hour. Like you, my biological filtration is good. Have you worked out your turnover rates?
@@paulouzman7267 I haven't ever measured the actual turnover rate. The advertised GPH rates would give me 2.8 turns per hour. I'm sure reality is way less.
@@saltynfresh For sure. Botot. stand is 22.5" tall, top stand is 43" tall. Works great for me with 75's. Biggest downside is the top tank can get bad glare from the bottom tank lights, if you don't block it somehow.
Seeing all these canisters and hang on backs and lights... What is the power bill every month? I think i remember you said you heat the room in another video, which saves costs and almost a need for a fish room with more than 5 tanks, imo, assuming like 75g+ each.
I've never calculated the energy costs, honestly. It'd be tough to parse out how much of my energy bill is fish room vs home. I'm sure it's a lot though.
@Riffwaters good to know I am currently building a 600G ,I am hesitate between plexiglass(acrylic) 3/4 or just 3/4 laminated glass cost 2 time more than the acrylic aha
@@norbertknaak1184 you can find them at several stores, but I like to get them from keepfishkeeping.com/products/tidal-power-filters-from-seachem-sicce?variant=31919855501376
Nice looking tanks too.

@@CichlidCharmer Thanks David! But your tanks are beautiful and clear so maybe that's the better way. :)
@@Riffwaters Aw I appreciate that, sir!
Great video! I'm a little surprised at how lightly filtered some of those tanks are. But the proof is in your fish, which are absolutely beautiful!
@@michaelhaines3451 Thanks! Seems to work for me, but yea not the heaviest filtration.

@@shyyxyooj169 Thanks! And yea, I wish I went with sumps on some of them. Lol. But live and learn.
Great video, glad to see someone keeping impressive tanks while not going crazy about over filtering.
@@FIUPanther305 Thank you! I try to not go crazy. :)
Love your channel and your fish room is awesome 😎

@@stoneysscapes7544Thanks! I'll try to come up with some DIY projects to do videos on.
Beautiful aquariums my friend. Great looking fish room.
@@dannyaquatics Thanks! I appreciate the kind words.
Make the sumps out of plywood. Same concept as the tanks. And you can make them custom sized so they fit.
Nice shirt 😀
@@PrimeTimeAquatics Ha. Thanks Jason!

@The_Mothzz so glad to hear you're interested in the Madagascar fish! I'll do my best. :)

Beautiful tanks! I would like to know your water change schedule. Also, would like to know what you feed your eel. TIA!
Thanks for the video ideas!

@@victorcantu5659 Thanks!
Hello do you mind sharing the heights of your 75 gallon tank stands? The double stack is nice.
Great T-shirt also!
@@saltynfresh For sure. Botot. stand is 22.5" tall, top stand is 43" tall. Works great for me with 75's. Biggest downside is the top tank can get bad glare from the bottom tank lights, if you don't block it somehow.
Thanks for the Info appreciate it 🔥🔥🔥
I use tidal 110 in my 55gal

How tick is the glass of the two big aquarium? thank
@@KathouQC 650g has 3/4" glass, 600g has 5/8" glass but 3/4" would've been better for it.
