thanks for the warm welcome
im in the inland empire (corona) by the 15 and 91. its still about a 2 hr drive to san diego lol used to go down there all the time when i had family there.
the tank is 29 gallons (i dont quite rmr the measurements but im pretty sure the length is around 30" the hight looks to be about 14" and the width about 10) i'll put the exact size in my sig. once i measure the tank
substrate: its white pebble with some red sprinkled all over (wish i went with black sand - maybe after may since i might move) and i have black slate that is layered at an angle to make some hiding spots, theres a medium sized piece of bogwood with lots of holes in it so more hiding spots, and i have a plastic plant. i'll get real ones soon, but not from the LFS theres a fish auction coming up soon so i hope to make it and pick some up from there
equipment: emperor 280 filter, i took out the filter media it came with and put together my own, there was an empty cartridge that i filled with bio-ceramic rings, and i put in a floss behind it to help polish off the water, and then there is the bio-wheel that it comes with.
the heater i have no idea what brand, but i plan on changing it cause it seems flakey... one day its working right the next day my water is at 86.... i'm doing the fishless cycle so i am attempting to keep it at 80-82, oh i have an airpump as well with two outlets that i connected together using a T valve.
the lights i have no idea, it just came with a hood on it and a light fixture with a tube light in it. i plan on having live plants so i think im going to have to change it
if theres anything else i left out and you'd like to know feel free to ask and i'll be happy to answer
