also how do i take care of my rodi unit!

 

Uh, oh! I see a bent corner on 3 of those dollars! That's a lot of cash. haha. The stand looks great though.

That's a lot of fish for a 65g.

 

Stock list looks ok except for the sea horse and the mandarin goby they need a mature tank with plenty of pods to eat, and the sea horses need their own system to be in for many reasons, but flame angels are a great choice just be careful with them if you want to add coral they have been known to pick at them. Build looks great though I will def follow til the end!! You also might want to look at the number you have and pic out your favorite fish out of the group

 

Ok I plumed it and am filli it with water now. Any tips as I go are appreciated.
Also how do I care for a ro unit
All I know is long run times I think!!!

 

Hello guyss...really the only fish that can be kept in a 5 gallon would require a heater. A betta is the only fish that you can keep in a 5 gallon and like I said it requires a heater.
