BriannesFishFam Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Hello! Does anyone know if I have to add a line of water to the rack like Dean has? In 3 videos of people building them there has been a line of water that runs to each container, I was wondering if I cut more holes in the side plugged with sponge would I get away with not having a water line? The rack system would be for plecos, ricefish, praecox, apistos, cories, maybe guppies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of assumed the small trays could act as a small tank with a sponge filter and no other filter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 For bio to build up, there needs to be water regularly (gently) pushing / passing through the sponge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
