Hi Guys
I wanting to set up a fuge to cultivate pods as well as some nutrient export. Due to room under tank i can only really fit a 250mm L x 500mm W x 600mm H. Due to it being soo narrow im afraid it will be hard to get it to tumble? Has anyone had a narrow fuge before and had an issue with this.
Does it need to tumble to be effective also, again main reason is pod cultivation for future fish stock.
Tank will have low fish stock so not sure if it will have alot of nutrients in the water.

Most folks don't tumble the chato. It just needs good flow through it.

Oh really? So jut slow flow and i should be ok then.
Yea, keep an eye on it a bit. Some folks have problembs with too low a flow or return rate.
But most have no problem.
