River tank manifolds for sale.
Hi everybody, I've been gone for awhile and unfortunately was never able to set up my genuine Hillstream tank. I still have my daughters 25 gallon tank to enjoy and that will have to suffice for now. I need to spend more time with my son while he's still home and I found a common hobby that we both ...

Totters off for more research. Biology: Inhabits hill streams up to an elevation of 300 m (Ref. 4...

Emma, Thanks for the name of the beautiful crypts. I've often read that Anubias, Java fern and Java moss are good Hillstream plants but that Crypts are not a good choice. I saw those in your tank and said "man I have to ask her what those are". I'm guessing that the Cryptocoryne balansae are able to...

Emma, Those tanks both look great! I'm especially impressed with the amount of plant growth that you've achieved. Could you please share some of the details for achieving such lush growth? Do you add fertilizer, Co2, and what about lighting? I'm still up in the air on lights. Originally I intended t...

I’ve already built the manifold and am using the same pond pump prefilters as on the practice 55 gallon tank. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/killforfood/Aquarium/75gallonrivertank017-1.jpg For filtration I’m ...

Just an update on the powerhead mods. I’ve found that a 1 ½” hole saw is the perfect size to increase flow to the impeller. It’s much faster than my pocket knife and makes a much more uniform hole size. For you folks across the pond, try a 40mm hole saw, its only slightly larger. I took Martins advi...
