BenA Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 The new 200ltr (~75gl) tank has arrived yesterday. Today I have set it up filled it just under 50% with fresh water and stuck an air stone inside. Tomorrow I plan to plant it, position the wood and fill it with water that will be taken out (~100ltr) from my other tank during the two weekly water change. Also, I plan to move X2 pre filter sponges and X2 sponge trays from the established tank to the new tank and start running the filter, the fish will be moved from the containers on Sunday. Is their something that I have missed or should have done differently? Thanks as always Ben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_G Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Sounds good to me. I’d start with a a few fish. I started my current 75 gal with pre cycled media and eight fish. Do you have any pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
