I've gotten so many questions about this 300 gallon aquarium, so let's take it 1 by 1 and go through all of them. We will even discuss how much it costs ADAMC= 10% off at Southeastcichlids.com adamc= 10% off at Elitecichlids.com

Great video. Thanks for sharing. One comment I would add is a lesson I learned from my saltwater tanks. When you add protein to the tank, try to get 100% of the protein ingested by the fish, so that they can digest it. Digestion breaks down the complex proteins into amino acids that the Beneficial Bacteria can easily process. The "soup" going in with you fish food mix adds a lot of undigested, complex proteins to the water column that is adding no value to fish growth, complicates the nitrogen cycle, and will dirty your filters faster. In saltwater we use protein skimmers to get this stuff out of the water fast, before it affects water quality.

Really liking that tank Adam. I agree on the plants. I like the color and in my case they give my Polystigma a place to chill where the boss, the Venustus can forget about him. Sometimes a sub-dominant male can do okay and it would put more color in there. Thanks

Hi Adam. Thank you very much for the sharing all that information. I love your Aquarium, it is a beast of an Aquarium. Even although you have only Three Males in that huge aquarium and the rest are all females they are all very nice looking fish and you will get lots and lots of beautiful Fry and, maybe One day you could have an all male aquarium, but that is up to you. Thank you very much for sharing. #63rd Like. Have a great week. Yes, the Wives keep us Men in check at all times, but you know what, I too would sleep in the aquarium if I could get away with that.
