don't know much about spray bars, but would like some more movement. spray bar or any other ideas. 75 gal. 4' long. canister outlet is close to the middle. no build up or problems but I think it would help
What about a powerhead or two?
If you're looking for more movement, a plain powerhead will be fine.
I used this one in my 29 gal river biotope - I needed lots of water flow:
Two will probably be fine for a 75 gal. 800 GPH might be overkill.
It wasn't a true biotope (diff plants and rocks than where the fish are from), but here's a pic, before I added the powerhead for additional movement:much cheaper than what I expected. perfect! I might go with the 530 gph 2 pack.
do you have pictures of that river biotope? that sounds amazing. I'm big into flyfishing and looked quite a bit into a river type of tank.
beautiful tank. I just redid my daughters tank with white sand and after seeing yours I wish I did black sand. thanks for the picIt wasn't a true biotope (diff plants and rocks than where the fish are from), but here's a pic, before I added the powerhead for additional movement:
Thanks! I no longer have that setup (29 gals being sold to make room for a corner tank), but I think it's my favorite scape so far!
Black sand hides waste and algae much better than white sand.
Yes. I got them from a landscape store. Those fish were wild caught and needed harder water than what my source water is.exactly what I'm thinking. white sand is hard to keep clean. I use a turkey baster to help clean now. I also think my brichardI shellies looked washed out due to lack of color to begin with but the white sand doesn't help when they try to blend in. was that chunks of limestone?
