Question
hello.I saw that you have a180 tank and was curious what filtration you used...I have had many tanks in the past but i have recently aquired a 150 gallon that i would like to set up for a goldfish tank, they are pretty dirt fish so any suggestions for filtration would be helpful.
Thanks!

Answer
HiYa!

We do have a 180gallon, and in it we have, 2 Oscars, 4 Silver Dollars, 2 Salmontail Catfish (they get rather large), A Salvini and a Blackbelt.

We have a 1200litre per hour cannister filter running plus 1 x 2000litre an hour internal and 1 x 1500litre per hourinternal. This covers all our requirements in fact some would say its overfiltered but I don't believe there is such a thing. The internals also provide good surface agitation.

Hope this helps!

Cheers! Rach
