| This is my new 3ft breeding tank   It has a sponge filter on the right, air stone in the middle, cannister filter on the right. Dimensions are 90cm x 25cm x 30cm. Only half filled because of crack on top half. (got the tank for free  ) Just making sure the tank is half decent. Would be a great if i could have any suggestions on what is good or bad thanks |

| yep  3 foot tank filled half way is about 70-80 ltrs which needs filtration of about 300l/h. sponge filters only do about 50l/h _________________ Doug's Bristlenose eBook - The number one source of Bristlenose information and the most detailed breeding guide avaliable 3rd edition OUT NOW!!!
