Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

I like it! That looks like a good hydrodynamic set up. You should get a nice gulf stream through the middle!

Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

Thanks again everyone!
I used my injecting bubbles to show me how to shape it. The flow wraps around the islands and pulls in to the back where the inputs are for the closed loop. I will go take a few pictures and post them of the bubble infuser.
What it does is pull air into the inputs of the closed loop turning my tank into a giant protein skimmer.

Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

So have you always had the bubble infuser in your tank or is this new too?

Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

Nice scape! Looks like it gives the fish lots of room to swim and lots of places to hide.
Great job!

Looks awesome! I really like the look of the scaping. Is that a monti or a cup Turbinaria in the upper right?
