  1. so i will need 3 or 6? 1 for each side of the overflows and 1 for the sump or how does that work
  2. so if im starting off with new stingrays, 3-5 inch in size, what is the relative size arrowona i should get? start as a small one as well? what do they eat? i dont knwo much about alot of this. please help lol.
  3. this is what i meant with the 45's thanks again. so they are called bulk heads and are available in the hardware stores as well?
  4. You know after i read your post it made sense lol when i read my buddies email i didnt even clue in. now dont i look like a retard. lol as for the parts, i didnt get any with it. you mean the black parts, that the tubing goes into correct?
  5. sorry about the sand, ill take a 100 lbs of it if thats what i need to have it 1" thick on the bottom. i saw the arrowona set up at big als, and it does fill out nicely.
  6. Im firing up a 230 gallon tank to have as a stingray tank. I would like suggestions, of what to have in there, besides the Black Sand that i have inquired about in a previous post on the board. Any live plants? type of lighting and so on so forth. Any suggestion is welcomed. And appreciated. Thank you in advance.
  7. the tank is 6 ft long, and there is an overflow on both sides of it. there are pre drilled holes in the the overflows, so i dont need to drill there, and the 90 gallon sump is predrilled for the pump to return the water. the only drilling i was told to do is in the stand. I was told to come straight down off the overflows, and have 2 45 degree angles in there to increase water flow, because a 90 elbow would slow the water down. then have the pipe come through the stand, and then have 2 45's into the 90 sump. Is this true?
  8. Those are my old fish so i wish to answer 2 answers. You have to count the rays on the back. 9 is a female and 10-14 is a male. You can also tell by the anal fin. The anal fin of the male is larger and thicker than the female. But the female tends to be a little larger. Hope this helps as well.
  9. my mistake it is 2 " pipe i need lol what do i use for joining hte pipe to the overflow
  10. its does make sense yes. anythign else i should be looking for
  11. So i have this new 230 Gal tank with a 90 Gal sump solid oak stand. i need some help with the plumbing area of it. from the overflow to the sump and back. pump that pumps 4800 GPH but can be slowed or sped up if i want. i think its 3 inch plumbing and what should i use PVC or ABS ? what type of sealant ? Any help would be greatly appreciated. and thanks in advance.

    Hello all, Some about me: 26 male, reside south Edmonton, work in a warehouse in the winter and summer and race motorcycles out in Ft Sask, in the summer. I am new to the fish scene here in Edmonton. I started out around 6months ago with a smal 20 gallon tank, and now went through 2 38 gallon tanks and im up to a 6ft one now. Its fresh water i know some will frown upon it but you have to start somewhere. i currently have 4 angel fish, 5 balas, 5 rainbows, 2 scissor tails, 2 rope fish, 1 I.D, 2 apple snails, 3 dwarf frogs, 5 cichlids, and 2 plecos. I am looking to maybe get rid of some of them or all and have a strict cichlid tank. I will be asking advice most of the time becusae im new. But i hope fo rthe best out of this site. I heard about it from Raymond Fong when i picked up the 5 cichlids the other night. Some Q?'s to start. Where do you get your fish locally? Is there breeders her ein Edmonton>? Can you point me their way for cichlids? Where is the best place to get a 230 gallon tank. ? Is there any where to get help for a Salt water set up? Is there a breeder for Sharks ( Salt ) here? or do i have to go to the states? Any info is greatly appreciated, and thanks ahead of time. Dalray
