@Zangetsu - I think the price for what you got is ok.I duno actual price for 2L tank but look like you got manual valve also.its price around RM70-100 ( double price for auto solenoid valve if u want to upgrade later)
normally 3L (tank only) is around RM250-300 at LFS. |

It is allright to turn on for 24 hours ASLONG as you aerate your tank at night...
Also: crushing ADA Aquasoil normal will turn into MUlm or Mud. LOL! And,playerseeker, Eheims anyone? AHHAA Drew |

For a 1feeter plus tank like yours, either get Classic 2213 or Eccos, They do not come cheap but the quality is superb. I personally favour the Classics for quality and Eccos for convenience.. Be prepared to spend at least almost rm 200 LOL
