Well, it's still cycling right now, I'm hoping that will end soon, but here are a few pics.

Thanks. I know. that's why we upgraded from a 25 gallon.

Am I right in saying you're doing a fish in cycle with a 75g tank?

You've got more energy than me, I'm struggling to find the energy to do daily water changes on my 90L since my plan to add a mature filter went tits up. Bugger doing daily water changes on a tank that size!

Well, it was more a matter of necessity. Our living room wouldn't hold the 25 gallon they were in AND the 75 gallon, so, it was up for a few days and in went the fish.
Thank goodness for the python system. I would be killing myself with buckets if I didn't have it. Defenately worth the investment already.
Let me tell you though I'm almost regretting this tank with all the problems with nitrites and ammonia I'm having.

I'll bet. Could you not move the filter from the 25G straight across?

We had an old school undergravel filter. *roll eyes here*
So we grabbed some gravel and put it in the filter, but hasn't seemed to do much good.

 

[tenohfive]

Ah. You gone for some flavour of external filter now I take it?

 

[PlatinumAngel]

Yep. We have the Emporor 400.
Hangs on the back
