I bought a 40 gallon breeder tank for Jacques' upgrade.
The filter, a Fluval 206 says never to let the water level fall more than 7 inches down from the rim. Well, from the rim to the tank bottom is 16.5 inches. I WAS only going to keep 4-5 inches of water in it, since Jacques is such a poor swimmer (and has had a near drowning already). But in order to use this filter, I'll have to keep her in water AT LEAST 9 inches deep for the filter to work.
I'm planning on a LOT of "furniture" and mid-water platforms for her, but could I add say, 8 bricks to the bottom of the tank and not risk breaking it?
