My 190g Tank Will Arrive Home This Very Friday! Some Questions PLS Help

[mathew]

Hi all
I booked a JEBO 190g tank in a LFS this Wednesday; it cost me 4400 RMB ($530 maybe), transportation included.

The LFS owner advised me to buy 2 JEBO filters to get better filtration. They are quite big, one outside like a box, holds 3 levers, they are filter cotton, chinaware rings and carbon; one inside just holds filter cotton.
Q1: Anyone has a 190g or that big tank? How many filters do u use? I would like to know the filters¡¯ Shape, Power and Gallon Per Hour.

I¡¯d like to set some rocks in my tank, but I do not know what kind of rock should I put. The LFS owner advised me to put rounded rocks for they won¡¯t hurt my Oscars.
Q2: Anyone tell me how many kinds of rocks might be put in fish tank? My English is limited, PLS tell me their meanings.

In addition to the rocks, I¡¯d like to put driftwood in my tank.
Q3: Is it a good idea?

And also, I am going to buy one or two Green Terrors. I am in Northeast of China. One 4 inch long, from mouth to the end of tail, costs 15 RMB.
Q4: Will 4 inch Green Terror be safe with some 6.3 inch Oscars?



Further more, after my tank finished I¡¯d like to take some pictures and upload to this forum. But tank arrangement might cost more than a week, removing chlorine cost 3 days, deal with rocks, and add tentative fish. WHAT ELSE SHOULD I DO?

Hope all might share my HAPPINESS! Haha!

Thnx.
Mathew

It my tank I have all sort of rocks and driftwood. Although the osacrs like to rearrange the aquarium, this is the same setting as where they live so im sure it is fine. I have used aquarium silicone to silicone some rocks together to form caves so that way if they do try to knock them over they wont topple onto themselves or other tank mates.

I think green terrors get like 8 to 10 inches so they should be fine, they might scrap it out, but as long as no one gives in and gets stresses out they should be fine in a tank that size.

Also drift wood is a good idea, helps break up territories fo reach individual fish to stop fighting.
