Wow. Nice, clean and neat setup. Amazing how clean the tank when it is so populated.
i like how u setup the pump elevated on the rock slab. Does sand goes in often? |

To be perfectly honest, there will have problems on my OHF.....as it is elevated NOT high enough, and even if I were to make it higher, every now and then there will be fine sand getting into the pump/OHF because of the characters of the fishes i.e. sandshifters/cichlids as well as the fine sand. IMHO, the ideal filtration should be using a canister filter with those black sponge wool covering the inlet. |

cut into half and wrap around your pump. tighten with a black cable tie... should prevent lesser sand from going in. |

That's a good idea. Just need to suck out the sand residue on the wool from time to time.
