Fish Crazy
I'm setting up a 30 gallon long and have purchased the Aquaclear 50 (with sponge prefilter) for filtration.
I would also like to use a stack of 3 Aquarium co-op sponge filters (1 medium, 2 small) In the event that my electricity is off for a period of time, I could battery operate the medium in the 30g tank and the 2 smalls in my betta tanks.
Is this going to work? After a period of time, will I have enough bacteria on all of the sponges for this to work? I also plan on using the sponges in my quarantine tank when needed.
I wonder if I'm going to have enough waste matter to grow and feed this much bacteria.
Thanks for your help. This is a great site.
