Default 422 set up for GHXB

Hi guys, sharing my latest tank set up for a GHXB

Would like to thank bro Canopy for telling me where to get the pvc joints!

Medias used for the tanks are Mr Aqua CR m size and abit of Azoo.


Ordered Glass covers for the tank.


Pasted white oyama on the Glass covers.


Fits perfectly!


The end product!


Will be planning to add in a Hydra 50 and a sponge filter next time.
Any other ways i can improve my current set up? TIA
All comments welcomed

From the photo it looks like the filter top is demist touch the ceiling. Will there be an issue changing your disposable sponge?

The top tier trays are pull-out trays
So there won't be any issues when changing the sponge

Hi, thanks for the suggestion, have thought of getting wave maker before, but I think I'll just use a Hydra 50 and a internal UV filter to create the wave flow in the tank

looks good! with lights on 24/7, likely u will need to be prepared to do more scrubbing and water change. Other than that, the setup actually looks pretty good already
