I don't know why your not seeing the pic. Might be a photobucket thing. It shows up for me. This tank has been set up for about a year now. I've been very faithful about the water changes. At least once but mostly twice a month. The last change was about a week ago. The tank is 24 inches deep. I have one of the box type bio filters in it. The box sits on the bottom with the pump inside and the water entering through the top. I'd say 8 inches off the bottom. No undergravel. Also I'm using a HOT Magnum canister filter. None of my golds are full size, the biggest one maybe 5.5 inches in total length. Mostly small. I just lost a Ryukin and a fantail too so I'm down to 14 golds and maybe 12 swordtails of decent size, theres some wee ones in there too. I'm not trying to do any breeding. But as for water quality, I feel it's good. I did an ammonia check yesterday and it was bottom of the scale. That's the only kit I have right now. The only non ideal condition I think I have is temperature. I live in Texas and this tank is on my back porch, though it does get 100% shade. I have a big patio cover. It's warm in the summer time of course but the fish didn't seem to mind it last year. The big guy is still hangin in there. Alive that is. He eats fine when I hold him up to the food but then just sinks back to the bottom. I got some of the Bio blend food also.
