Side drop filters

Recommended Posts

Pick up my 6x2x2 off a mate next weekend and im going to be making up a side drop for it. Wondering what thickness glass you would recommend? 

Also what % of the tank should the side drop consist of? Was thinking 15%. So about 24cm of the 180cm sound about right?

My sidedrops for 6fts are 13cms. Dont want to take up too much of your tank with the side drop.

Perfect that will do me then. Wont be a massive bioload. 6 fronts to begin with more if i can find more females if not will be a few calvus or comps. 

10mm glass is what i ordered today should be fine hopefully.
