Let's see the fowlrs!!

Maximizer · Apr 2, 2016

I would like to see who all has fowlr tanks. With some predator or aggresive fish. I don't have one yet, though hopefully I will soon.

Here's mine right before I decided to sell /give away a lot of my fish and try smaller and also a few different fish. I really really miss some of them though :/
And you've see how I have my tank now because of my other thread

Good looking tanks! This thread is finally taking off lol

Is this a 6ft or 8ft tank?

mmarro99 · Sep 18, 2016

6' 225 gallons. Looking to upgrade though

Sorry, most of mine are individual pics. I'll try to get a pic at feeding time

Mfreddy · Sep 20, 2016

I'm open to suggestions on getting rid of the algae!

What do your nutrient levels look like?

Mfreddy · Sep 21, 2016

I've fought nitrates for a long time, they stay somewhere between 20 and 40. Dosing nopox, and doing a lot of water changes.

As mentioned earlier maybe a bio pellet reactor or you could try an ATS. Either buy an ATS or DIY one.

Impressive! Nice collection of fish in there. No problems with the other fish picking on the lion?

No not at all. Everyone is pretty chill except for the Moorish Idol and Clown trigger...they picked on every new fish

How big is the clown trigger? What do you have for filtration?

He was about 2 in when I got him in Feb and he's about 5 in now. Eats everything..frozen, pellet, nori..my finger LOL.
I have some prefiltter sponge and 2 cubic feet of the Marine pure blocks in the sump . Also run UV and 2 liter of biopellets in a DIY reactor. Haven't check my Nitrate or phosphate lately but never had any algae though

Try an algae scrubber. It will suck up nitrates like crazy, it's cheap to build, and because there is already algae growing in it algae is less likely to grow elsewhere.
