20 Gallon Fresh Water Aquarium: Community Fish Tank

This is the Catspit Productions fresh water community aquarium or fish tank. This tank is a 20 gallon, high with 2 Aquaclear outboard or hanging filters. One filter is a #70 or 300 gallons per hour filtration and it is set up like a normal filter with carbon, ammo carb, and filter medium. The second filter is a #50 or a 150 gallon per hour filtration. This smaller unit is set up with activated charcoal only. This is like a booster for clarity and toxins. It works very well and I can go over the maximum number of fish allowed for this volume tank. About 20 to 25 fish up to 1.5 inches each.

This tank is about 1 and 1/2 years old and has been moved once. All of the plants are live but rather new. With a plecostomus and catfish, the tank is literally self cleaning. The filters are cleaned and changed once every month and that is all. Very easy maintenance.

The light is a standard fluorescent tube that is left on for daylight simulation and turned off for night mode. The light is set on a timer.

Many of the fish are over a year old and have been with the tank since the beginning. They are very fat and well fed!
