So there is a possibility I may be moving house across the country in the near future. My Juwel 125 Rio has served me well for the past 10 years, and I am happy to continue using it. The thought of transporting my modest tropical fish on a 250 mile journey made me consider perhaps I would be better to donate them to my local aquarium shop as the prospect of transporting all my possessions plus the water fish and other items seems pretty daunting.
So I was thinking today, should I simply restart a new comunity tropical setup if and when I move. Or should I perhaps consider going for something more specific. I think it might be time to consider for example new lighting units so viewing the tank is better, should I perhaps consider a rocky setup instead of planted? the options obviously go on and on.
Should I try something technically challenging like a river setup. Maybe go further with the planted tank, as I currently would say im pretty amateur at this using liquid carbon and not especially designing the tank to be optimised for this.
The tank does have a nice piece of bogwood that is well established, and its bedded with plant substrate of about 2-3 inches.
So for a 125 ltr tank, please throw me some ideas out there. Theme and stocking.
I currently use an Eheim 3 350
This was the tank at its best -
------
incidently I also have a Fluval 90ltr tank, which just has a few rasbora in with some rocks. Its pretty minimal and again I would consider setting this up newly as well. So if anyone had thoughts for a 90ltr this might be on the table. I might just stick to one tank after the move though -- maybe change the 90ltr tank to specifically a shrimp tank was one idea I had with just a shoal of Corys or something?
