New 150G Tank Setup Advice

[Tautog]

You can always buy black hoses and intakes/spray bars online, just verify sizes. They are not original Eheims, so are just made by others. We have some and they work fine. The 2262 does have a tremendous flow, our issue currently is some dead spots near the vegetation. The 2262 tries to uproot stuff, so am considering a circulation pump for that aspect. Both our returns are surface agitation and we have a powerhead for additional oxygenation. Very swift currents in the line of fire, but a few spots that seem to be absent from any current. Overall its a great tank and setup, just need to tweak some lighting issues and photoperiod, add a bit more circulation and I think it will remedy the issue. Here is the thread on this tank for your perusal

Thank you. That's gold. I may need to reduce the power pump 2262 and go with 2260. Look into less pressure funnel return and throttle a shade back if it possible since I have Discus with flat bodies and dwarf cichlids on the bottom. I will be reading your postings tonight when I get home. Thank you so much. I like this forum. It's going to save me oodles of drive time to LFS which I've been to most in TX researching ideas.

I don't have an iPhone ... but many of us use the Tapatalk app. It is as easy as clicking the picture icon.
