| Bought this as a first tank after inheriting a very miserable looking oranda in a tiny goldfish bowl with the flat we moved in to. It's only 21L but at the time I had no idea about goldfish needs! Now that I do I have upgraded to a MUCH larger tank - thanks FK! UPDATE: This tank has now been sentenced to a FISHLESS EXISTENCE for the rest of its natural born life!!! |
| The 100 Acre Wood! - 330L |
|---|
| All Pond Solutions 120 x 47.7 x 66.5cm. It has an APS 2000l/h external filter with UV, Dorset Pea Gravel substrate (2-3mm) and live plants: Elodea, Hornwort, Java Fern, Anubias, Cryptocoryne and mossballs. Also an Eheim 400 air pump with a 7cm bubble disc and 30cm airstone, and a 300W heater that came with the tank. Currently occupied by Piglet, my orange and white oranda, Tigger, a black moor (both girls), Carlos, a red and white fantail, and Cedric, an orange common (both boys). The tank is divided with a DIY barrier at the moment due to Cedric harassing the girls. The divider is positioned diagonally to maximise swimming space but Cedric will be re-homed to a pond when the weather warms up and the barrier will come down. Update - May 2012: Cedric has been re-homed to a lovely pond in Walsall and settled in really well. The barrier has now been removed, and Carlos is getting on swimmingly with the 2 girls ![]() |
