how did you set up your penguin 200? i just bought one and im having trouble with it. its on but the water is not filtering. also, did yours come with a filter propeller wheel and housing that you can take out?
@b0bsyoruncle it was a peice of cake. bought it, rinsed it out, put everything together which is an easy slip on, attached it to the tank, and it worked right away. and yes it did come with a propeller wheel and housing that i can take out. you got the 200 penguin bio-wheel filter right? when you put it on and turn it on did you fill up the filter with water so the pumping can start?
@b0bsyoruncle let me know if that's not the case. if possible make a video and show me whats wrong with it i'll try to figure it out. show me the peices and when you put them together and all.
How's that filter working out for you, I so want to get a Penguin Bio, but ppl are saying its too noisy, I own a 10 gallon tank with a Flowerhorn fish, Water's been getting cloudy, after several water remedies and changes, hopefully getting a Penguin Bio will work....also did you stay with a 20gallon filter for your tank? Was thinking of getting the Penguin 200 for a 10 gallon setup.
well before i was using the 100 and man that thing is QUIET ! i mean quiet as in like at times ill walk over to see if my filter is even running cause i cant even hear it. but then i upgraded to the bio-wheel 200 and that thing is loud as hell either hear the wheel spinning or the water splashing or both. when the top of the water hit at a certain level is "sometimes" quiet with a little noise. for the 10gallon get the 100 bio-wheel for your tank its competely silent and great when i had my 10g.
i forgot how much they were a got a friend that worked at a fish store so i got it for free hahaha but they were pretty expensive for a small fish. yes they're really agressive but they got along with my barbs cause the barbs were in the tank first so its like their home. but the chili crab and puffers dont get along so the crab is usually in its cave to wait till its dark to come out. but the crab is way too fast for the puffers to catch anyways haha they usually just mind their own business.
gotta love the fugu puffers =) just gotta make sure you dont eat them haha. let me know how your tank goes after the cycle, if you need any help or questions feel free to message me just remember ALWAYS study the fish you are getting and know their personality. was planning to move onto getting a planted tank but thinking about moving on to saltwater since i spent almost a whole year reading about saltwater lol.
Wow This is a Crazy Sick Aquarium Lol im impressed!! i just started my 29 gallon tank and this inspired me lol thanks!! i love ur Easter Island Statue i have one too! Btw where did u find ur Fugu puffers!
thanks for the comments guys but i sold this tank due to moving to new jersey from california. moving back to cali next year and from there start a 55g saltwater if i think im ready for it. sad to see my fishes and tank go away...
dang it sucks to lose beautiful tanks like that when we moved we kept the tank and stuff but we had to get rid of the fish i had to sell my snowflake eel i had for like 3 years
my 100 was quiet as fuck but this one the 200 you can hear a little grind here and there, it gets really quiet sometime but when the water is at the top it splashes alot and once the water evaporate to about half an inch from top thats when its really quiet then when it evaporates to about an inch it splashes again haha.
yup still alive and really really active and colors are alot brighter now and they got just a lil bigger. hoping they wont grow too fast till i have time to save enough for a 40-55 gallon tank.
can u send me the site where u found that from? the LFS told me they're freshwater but they also love API aquarium salt which i add that in too and they're good from there and that they dont reach up to a full marine fish. and yea the LFS told me about the temp but for some reason since its winter i dropped the temp down in the low 70's but then all they do is just sit on the ground and do shit then when i slowly start gettin the temp back up to the 80-82 they become really active
ummm... i keep the water temp around the 82 degrees but since its summer its almost always at the 84-86 degrees and everytime its hot they seem to be more active than if it was at 82. ph level is at 7.0 and which one are you talking about on how big they get? a ten gallon would be kinda small for tiger barbs especially since its best to put them in a group of 5 or more.
where did you get your rock decoration on the left? i'd appreciate it!

actually fugu's seem to do best in high brackish-full marine just like gsp's. fugu's also prefer cold water (lower then 67 degrees farenheit)
