Congrats for the purchase. The tank looks great, thou it might be difficult to search for the perfect size cover. About filter, i just changed from

- Sump filter (Power 75w - 4500L/Hour), but turn to Top Filter system because this time i want a super quiet environment.
- Top filter (Minimum power only 11w). Quiet and enough to control bio-load in my tank, but i want more circulation of water.
- Top filter (50w - 3500L/Hour). Quiet and powerful (only i need a larger filter box to prolong media change, because now the wools become fast clogged due to heavy filtering job)

Sump filter


Old top filter spec, found in garage but still usable


New one




In my case, to control water quality is one thing, but to deal with noise is one other thing. Even small small thing matters, but the result worths all the difficulties, in the end.

just buy hebo pump,easy to maintain plus more clean water,anyway,who want to trade rare fish with my sturgeon?hehehehe

4ft tank? Later show pics with creatures inside

I love it when my fishes getting stable and comfortable with new environment. Weeks ago i was a bit worried that Aragorn was being picky about food. Now i'm very happy that he seems to adapt very well with new place, filtering system and the whole setup. I can clearly see from his swimming posture and how he reacts to me everytime i come close. Tonite i feed him 11 crickets and he's still begging for more







Sorry for the blurry images. Those snaps were without aquarium light.

i've read other forums and still cant figure out the best answer. how big can spotted gar go in an aqurium. anyone?

depends on environment la!

Depends on the size of the tank laa..

But spotted gar max size i think can go around 3 feet. Alligator gar bigger.

thought so. thank you bro
