100 Gallon Fish Tank: Choosing The Type Of Fish, Water And Filtration Options

An Ideal Canvas To Let The Imagination Run Wild The 100 gallon fish tank is the ideal canvas for letting the imagination run wild and filling it with different kinds of fish as well as various decorations will give you plenty of space to fill and enjoy. The 100 gallon fish tank is large enough to accommodate more fish and, though costing a bit more than other lesser capacity fish tanks, is spacious enough for most needs. Of course, filling the 100 gallon fish tank requires giving thought as to what is should contain but that is a matter of personal choice and not constrains, since there is more than enough space to include most of what is desired. One needs to consider whether the 100 gallon fish tank will hold freshwater or saltwater and this should be on top of the wish list when constructing the fish tank. Freshwater fish tanks do not cost as much nor do they require much time to fill, while saltwater fish tanks need more time and attention in terms of deciding the pH as well as other chemical balances. These factors need to be considered when deciding whether to make the 100 gallon fish tank into a freshwater or saltwater one. Deciding on whether to have freshwater or saltwater in the fish tank will help govern which kind of fish that the 100 gallon fish tank will contain. Using freshwater in the fish tank will necessitate having fish such as catfish and oscars while saltwater fish tanks may require having a variety of puffer fish, lion fish, moray eels as well as sea horses. So, the kind of fish to put in the tank are greatly dependent on the type of water and for more information regarding the kind of fish suitable for different waters it would be advisable to consult the local pet store to find which species of fish complements which type of water. Along with choosing between freshwater or saltwater in the 100 gallon fish tank, one needs to consider the types of accessories that the fish tank will contain. Is the fish tank going to hold artificial or real life plant and what would be the best decorations that would suit the species of fish that the 100 gallon fish tank will contain? Added to this, is the necessity to consider the type of filtration options and combinations to keep the fish tank operational and these would include mechanical, chemical and biological combinations.

Ordered AquaController Pro ORP probe.
Ordered an ORP probe for the AquaController Pro, not that I needed one, just wanted one. An ORP probe provides a number somewhere between 200 and 500 where the higher the number the better. The important thing is not the actual number but the trend over time. For example if its always around 325 to 350 and one day its at 200 I would give the tank a close inspection looking for something wrong such as a dead fish.
