Great stuff and have just bought the Juwel 180 recently as well and have 3off fantail goldfish in it doing great. Also changed the supplied filter media to 30ppi Poret foam. Got a long 100x100 block of it and cut it to length so it would fit the lower filter section as a one piece block to use as my bio media section. Then cut another block for the top section leaving 1" height to allow me to put floss wool I could change each week. Water is crystal clear and all my levels at nearly zero. Great simple setup after selling my 450 litre, 2x heater, 2x external filter setup. Went smaller tank with fantail goldfish as well due to potential power cuts coming and higher electricity prices here in UK. Atb with your tank and will need to do a film about mine on RS Goes Aquatic as never done one since my old larger tank setup.

sounds great! 😃 honestly i'm thinking the same way as you regarding electricity and using heaters are the worst. i try to keep it at a minimum. this tank is at 24c° so the heater is on only during winter. i was thinking of getting geophagus or even discus again for my bigger tank but decided against it as i would have to heat 450 liter to 28c° and this could be expensive. i've just checked out your channel. the 450l tank looked really great! awesome clean look!

Danke vielmals! 😃 Was sind denn deine Lieblingssalmler oder Fische generell? Ich habe mir ja ein neues Becken bestellt und ja bin noch unsicher welche Fische es werden. Wird auf jeden Fall ein Wurzelbecken (Südamerika) und Panzerwelse sind auch sicher. Bei den Salmlern eventuell Zitronensalmler, Rote von Rio oder Rotblaue Kolumbianer. Eventuell auch was ganz anderes. Denke dass ich dieses Mal die Fische von Züchtern kaufen werde und nicht mehr aus dem Laden.

Question. I’m having my doubts between buying a rio 180 or 240l. Is the volume/appearence difference really so considerable in favour of 240? I would also go for a blackwater tank. Thank you :)

Video top comme d'habitude *communauté silencieuse, premier commentaire*. Avez-vous un osmoseur ?
