Died?how come?the fish that you put in the steel tank?

its the submersible pump that pump the wter into sump tank maybe..thats why the water is so clear. basic for filteration is to have the pump capacity double or triple the amount of the water in the tank at least. check at ur pump..how many liter/hour it will pump the water. then only go to your filter mechanism. u might need mechanical filter(foam) and bio-filter (bio ring etc) and carbon if needed for chemical filteration. DIY your top filter to hv 3 slot to put all those thing or get ready stock plastic top filter(that have 3 or 4 slots and works like sump tank) at ur nearest LFS. it shud work. btw the tank that u used is it brand new or used one? if its a brand new, ur fish died maybe because of 'new tank syndrom'. there are a lot of bad bacteria in glass silicon.to avoid them..just rinse with clorox n clean water. leave it dry under the sun for few days n can start to cycle the water..test with feeder fish..if they survive then ur tank is now ready for ur monster.

cool! your steel tank is it meant for fish keeping or what? i wonder how it looks...sounds quite big with 300-400g..haha can you post the picture if u dont mind? thanx.. nway wil pm u adress to bro khairulanuar's place..will visit him maybe on tuesday..feel free to come...
