Re: CHE setup

Risky, but you can cut a small hole for the cord and have the emitter inside the tank with a guard on it. Pictures will help though

Re: CHE setup

I wonder.. is it Glass or acrylic? If its acrylic It would be much easier and acrylic looks like glass.

Re: CHE setup

Ok I wouldn't put a Che in the fish tank. It doesn't have the height that you will need for it plus good space for the ATB. It also looks like a 10 gallon? correct me if Im wrong but I dont see this being a good choice for 2 ATB's.

Re: CHE setup

3 x 1.5 x 1.5 makes it a little bigger than a 40g breeder and a little smaller than a 50g.
TBH it would probably be easier to make an enclosure built around a CHE

Re: CHE setup

Ok so Its bigger than it appears in the pictures but I still think its a bad option for 2 ATB's I was judging the size off the water dish and planter/hide.

Would it be good for one ?? or do i have to build a new one ?? which sounds the best idea , and any suggestion on which type of material to use ?? to build an ATB cage ???

Re: CHE setup

I was saying it *might* be easier (but more expensive) to make another enclosure instead of trying to modify this one to work.
