    sorry cant have either :) well somedays i would probably give it all away. anyways the first tank has been setup for so long and is established so well the only thing I have to do is add water once a month that evaporated really no maintenance at all on it except for cleaning of the filter every 2 months. it only houses about 6 fish and 1 lobster and a few snails

    nah I dont mind water changes its kinda relaxing and a cool way to interact with the fish. I do the 160 with the flowerhorns about 1 a month and they are fun. they chase the tube pick at fingers and just act all weird. yes well water with a simple fill and stop setup so i can do several tanks at once by myself.

    You don't do weekly partials or need to add dechlorinator with the evaporation?
    I had a lobster, his name was terry..he passed on to bluer waters :)

    weekly partials on all 55 and under by or tri on the tanks up to 160, once a month on the 225 and its been about 3 months now on the 265 and all parameters are perfect so I am not gonna touch it till it needs to be touched.
