SRC Member tineng Posted June 11, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted June 11, 2005 Cos I will be keeping fish like AT. Were told that they need strong current to live well. definately need strong current for them to leave well....some of my FOWLR friends notice a signifcaint improvement in their behaviours when they add in a tunze to their FOWLR.... for me even a seio in a 2 footer ended up with my fishes coming out more often to 'enjoy' the surf.....however ,do becareful of heat generated by sumersable pumps....

SRC Member KTLK Posted June 12, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted June 12, 2005 care to take a pic of the concealed tunze chamber how r u going to do maintenance The top part of the chambers are open concept,one on the left & the other right. The IOS is at the middle. The water will be suck in thru a hole below & into the chamber,the tunze will then push the water out to the main tank again. I will suck out dirt from the top.
