Has anyone got thought of putting filters on a timer so they turn off for 2-3 hrs at night as this would save some money?
What type of filters? Canister?I have 15 filters running
I wouldn't want any of my filters off for any length of time by choice. Would it make sense to reduce all of your light schedules by 1 hour, or turning down your heaters by a degree or two?I have 15 filters running
Do you also have 15 heaters running? Turning them all down by 1 degree would save you more.I have 15 filters running
Could you not sell the existing fish stock and change it for temperate species instead? Many cyprinids will do fine at 18-20 degrees.hi all
ok thanks for all the input, they are mainly oase biomasters and filtomsart tanks and they are for display in my shop and my electric bill this month was high so was just thinking of ways to cut down, having this many display tanks does pull people in so dont really want to shut any down, ok well just gonna have to sell more to pay for them. its just every now and then i panic when i see the bill as we all do
many thanks fishy people
well its an aquascaping and terrarium shop so its all about the plants and tropical fish but hmmm that could be doable i guess ill have a think, thats pretty resourceful thinking by the wayCould you not sell the existing fish stock and change it for temperate species instead?
