Once placed inside my properly maintained main fish tank, it’s ready for my breeders and the right amount of food. 500 watt tank heater is attached to the bottom of my 50 gal breeder tank, heating it to the right temperature. Radiant heat will rise through the bottom & up the sides, then provide a lesser heat source for the 850 gal main tank. Beneath the breeder tank I had enough room to place another breeding pot. Providing the main fish tank with a nicely heated corner for others to take advantage of. Will give it a try come April, until then I’ll use it when needed to keep tank above 55 degrees.
Made from heavy shade screen, ½ PVC parts filled with ¼ inch gravel, 2 small pieces of 1 inch PVC & one 500 watt heater.
Sounds like it should work…wish me luck…I’ll keep you all posted, thanks for all your help.
For those wishing to see my set up from start to now, check out “Fire Pit … AP” then “Pipe Siphon by Apollo.”
