My Piranha tank setup

[designo]

My 10 baby Red Belly Piranhas have now become 12. And from only being 1.5 inches, they are now well over 4 inches long!!!

So they needed to be moved into a bigger tank! And so it had to be done!! A new 300 Gallon tank was brought in where they will spend the rest of their blood thirsty lives in!

Okaaaaay!

So, I'm using these two filters alongside the original two that came along with the tank. It's so obvious our boys are custom-making tanks to the exact copy of those chinese imports for even cheaper! Damn didnt know it was possible to be cheaper than the chinese!!!

So here are the external filter which wont be used cause I need to modify the rear panel of the tank. And the other canister filter with very strong powerhead!





The tank with the substrate in!





The substrate used!



And my drift wood which has been soaking in there for 2 days! I'll give them another day or so and some scrubbing!



I obviously undersestimated the quanitity of sand i needed, turns out I only needed one bag, I BOUGHT FOUR!!!!! Damnit!!!



I am gonna use these standard filters during the initial cylcing period, I will probably put some old medium in there and run it for a few days along with the original tank water. Then lets see what happens!
