I am stoked!
I got this baby free from a lady that watched my kids during the afterschool program. She was getting rid of it because she has had algae problems with it for years and years and just decided to get out of fish keeping all together.
It was a freshwater tank, and she never dosed it with any kind of medicine.
SO, 1 - 45 gallon I think its a tall tank
maybe a couple powerheads in the box of stuff she gave me
Here is my plan...
This puppy will go in my basement so that I can take the 20 gallon tall out from under my stand. I have an Iwaki pump that I am currently using for a closed loop for the return pump. Oh boy, I better check the model and make sure it will pump that high, its about 10 feet straight up....
I am going to build a stand for it, I am unhappy with the current one, it looks way way too wobbly and flimsy for me.
I am also going to have a 20 gallon tank on top of this one, obviously on its own platform, and that one is going to have RO water pumped into it. Then when I want to do a water change All I have to do is fill that bad boy up with RO and add salt and heat and stir. Then I can suck a bunch of water out of my tank upstairs or out of the sump, and simply open a valve and let the water out of the RO water tank.
Anything I missed?
I will be so happy to get the skimmer and stuff out from under my stand, its so tight in there I rarely clean the skimmer....
Well, here is the pic, and I am just going to detail the entire project in this thread....
