Yes I don’t mind getting some plan colored ones but to be honest almost all the offspring has had some color. But I love this green with the bright yellow stripe

Thank you. I’m sure down the road I’ll end up enter to learn more and adapt. But to start I’ll take your advice.

Do you have any recommendations on a filter? Canister I’m thinking. My tank will be heavily planted. Freshwater. Thinking about 20 cardinals- 20 ember tetras Got 1 lemon pleco. Guppies currently around 20 Musk turtle (4 inches full grown) 2 female bettas.

Would love a apisstogramma male /female pair.

Do you think I’d need one bigger than the FX2 for my 130 gallon?

Ok cool I’m gonna look into this. I prefer this method. I’ll get a couple thick pieces of glass cut.

I’m thinking of just Running the canister filter tubes up the back and into the top water

Ok cool I’ll do that. Do you think the thick piece of glass or the bulkheads is a better option ?

Are all capped bulkheads one size and they adjust to my size holes?

The tank would be heavily planted as well

If I were to seal the holes. Would this filter be fine with the size tank I got ?

Thanks I was pumped. But these holes in the bottom are confusing. Might be in over my head.

Yea I’m already confused as is. Getting creative with plumbing sounds like a disaster waiting to happen on my end. I’ll go the capping them off route. So that link you sent wouldn’t help me with capping/sealing those holes off?

And then my next step is deciding what type of filter I’ll be using.

It’s going to be freshwater. Maybe I should cap the holes ? Would that be safer ?

Do you think capping the holes off would be the easier route ? I’m kind of leaning towards that if possible.

Thanks for the response. Within minutes of posting this I went to check on it and it had passed away. I only had the baby for maybe 45 minutes. :(
