Added on November 25, 2012, 8:50 pmsubtank? that oso depends boss on your tanks as well. there are no preference to used subtank as filter for monster fish keeping. different ppl different styles but yet i would rather do research which is applicable for my needs and save cost as well.

from you used 8 feet tank y not you built a pond which is also cheap if you know how to do it actually. but i still prefer using fibertank/poly tank which is also safe cost and easy to maintain.

I wouldnt prefer pond for my case. As i prefer to view them side ways rather than just from top view. Unless for breeding stingray differnt story la haha. For my situation i guess a top filter for my 6 footer wound not be enough, as it would not be able to overcome all the bioloads my fishes are producing. Not to mention the filter cant be too big if it's a top filter. I tried different kinds of filters before, and in the end subtanks or diy Tangki filter is still the best choice considering u ve an extra space to hide the huge filter

I think that's diy canister with big big space to tapis bio loads.
I'm using the usual 4ft rack to put 2 tanks.
Top tank sure can use sump tank ( maybe at the bottom side)or top filter.
But lower tank can't. Not enough space for tiered top or too low for sump tank.
That's why am considering options.
I googled Taobao for Eheim. Many prices many models.
Any other brands other than Eheim? And if it's Eheim, which model?
Maybe two moderate canisters to support the future bio loads.
FYI, my tanks are in my living room. With a kid roaming free ^^
So, it should be safe from drowning.
LuQee, You also from Ipoh kan?
Johnson, which goliath should i get my hands on That WONT burst my 4ft.
i think any GAFT or VAFT will easily out grown the 4ft tank. But not to worry, if u get a 5inch baby goliath. U will still ve plenty of time to fund for a bigger tank
