FishBrain Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 They are predators but I found them to be very casual. If you want predator Channa go for the Redline and a bigger tank!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slough Shark Posted April 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 Of course... Do I need to get an Air Pump and some line to pump air into the sponge filter? Which sponge filter?:http://www.bigalsonline.ca/BigAlsCA/ctl366...ewType=Category I was thinking of Giving the tank CO2 Injection because of the plants I've been suggested, so I thought two medium size Sponge filter, one for each side, would be in order. One will house CO2 Bubble and teh other O2 Bubbles. Sound safe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toirtis Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Sounds fine. Go with the largest of Aquagiant's sponge filters....you can run it with a powerhead for greater efficiency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slough Shark Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "run itwith a powerhead". Actually, I don't even know how to use a sponge filter, do you just put it in the tank? I was under the impression that you pump air into it VIA tubing, and an Air Pump. I'm confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confused You do, but you can 'supercharge' it by putting a powerhead on top of the uplift tube instead of using an air-pump....multiple times the flow.

Slough Shark Posted April 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Link doesn't work, but I think I get it... So I still need airline tubing to run the powerhead's flow to the sponge filter tube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toirtis Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 So I still need airline tubing to run the powerhead's flow to the sponge filter tube? No, the powerhead sits directly on top of the sponge filter's tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishBrain Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 WOOHOO, I finally got to see these 3 Bleheri start hunting again. Last night two of them started going after a little convict and one quickly got bored but the other...oh no he wasn't going to let the little fish get away from him and WHAMMO took him from the back and filled his belly. Boy have I missed those days. Made me happy that my wife enjoyed it as well and suggested that we hold onto him for a little longer. I hope you find some shark so you can enjoy it aswell.

Slough Shark Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I'm sure I'll get one, I don't have the tank up yet, but when I do, it shouldn't be long till I make my grab! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
