I have always been building smaller AIO nano aquariums from 1 gallon all the way up to 37 gallons. My question is regarding the false wall that we use what bit are you using to make the drain? Are you using 3/16 or 1/4 inch diameter for the spacing? Have you ever considered making them smaller, say 1/8 inch diameter?
Many gobies, smaller variants escape through the 1/4 inch spacing and get placed in the back of the AIO, they are returned to display but that is stressful 3 the fish.
How long are the slots, currently I use 1inch slots and that gives me a higher water level, but when you use MP10's or Nero3/5 pumps, if you don't have euro-brace, that becomes an issue.
I read online that many use 1/1/2 long slots, but that gives you a much lower water line? Is that preferred for the larger tanks 30+ gallons?
Thanks,
MG
