    These tanks that are high have a possible oxygen problem. Ask you LFS what they would do. Maybe a powerhead to stir up the surface water might help or some airstone of some kind. Low oxygen is a haven for nitrates maybe it's kind of like a deep sand bed. Anyone reading this that can shed some light on this subject would be appreciated.

    Just trying to keep this thread going until you can get an answer. I know your going to need flow to add oxygen but I'm not an expert on this.

    Would 3 powerheads work? 1 on each side and 1 in the back. Btw the the black boxes are were the powerheads would be place. The 2 powerheads I'm going to buy are the Hydor Koralia Evolution Circulation Pump/Powerhead 1050gph. I have 1 K2 atm.

    I am thinking about making this tank sort of a coral tank also.
