    I had to add the Koralia Nano to the tank because the C220 wasn't creating enough movement on the other side of the tank and waste was building up on the substrate really quickly. I have the Koralia aimed at the filter intake and it's been working out great. I think the water movement you're referring to is on the surface which is from the filter outtake aimed at the surface of the water.

    Thanks. :D

    The Endlers are so tiny you can barely tell they are in there.... kind of reminds me of mosquito larvae swimming in water! :)

    LoL Yeah. In a few months they'll be enough in there that you'll actually see them.

    I was bored with the snow today so I made a video and took some extra time to change the titles and stuff around to try and attract more users from YouTube.
