Rbacchiega's 10 Gallon Yashia Goby House of Love

no need to really "drain" anything since it's an AIO. There's a false wall that runs one of the short sides of the tank and should handle the flow. I don't plan on there being much of a drop, just a spot to keep the pump separate from the fish. Just a big way of getting lots of flow without two powerheads. Yeah, there's less display volume, but I'm fine with that. It's more of a challenge I think

EDIT: PG 2!!! Yezow!

PICS!!!!!!!!!!:

The "Short" end of the cube. Display measures about 12x12x10

Manifold and Pump All put together and in the tank:


View of the outputs. I don't imagine it'll be too noticable once they are black:

Looking good..... Can't wait to see H2o in there

[Rbacchiega]

H20 in T-minus ....26 days

Could always paint the tank black from the water level up... then you won't see the jets..

[Rbacchiega]

true! Although the eggcrate is a little mis leading. There's some more acrylic behind that so the water level is up there. But I do like your idea......

Holy crap! You sure the water will actually stay in there? Looks great! How does the light fit on there? It's 24" isn't it?

I also love Yasha gobies, and believe it or not buying a Yasha was the primary purpose for me to be in the nano contest - good excuse to buy a Yasha!! I love them, but it would get lost in my 90. Probably eaten too. Still on the fence for the contest, but I won't be using a Yasha now.

anyone know how to get what you do on google sketchup and then post it on here? I've got a rough layout of stand/canopy so I can show people how the 24" light will work on a 10 gallon tank...

Whoa! 120x turnover in that little box! Surf`s Up! Should be pretty cool.

i'm not sure your sandbed will be able to handle that type of flow..
