Kurobom Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 So I'm ready to start developing my MTS, and have been considering a number of options and configurations. Then one of my usual shops started carrying the new Dennerle Shrimp Tank Complete kit... http://angelfins.ca/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3168 I haven't had a chance to see it myself, but the specs and the price are compelling. The only thing holding me back is the filtration system, not sure if it is enough. What are your thoughts/experiences with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Looks like a corner box filter. You could add a double sponge for cheap, and it would be more beneficial as a place to graze IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By saying "So I'm ready to start developing my MTS" you mean Malaysian Trumpet snails? The filter is more than adequate for the tank and plenty for snails. That style of filter can be a chore to keep clean. Im happy to see Dennerle is making 110v equipment and marketing their aquarium kits to North America. I purchased a Scapersflow filter this past winter and had to by a converter and a European plug style power strip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 I'm guessing in this case MTS= multiple tank syndrome? I may be wrong though. Vpier and Kurobom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's going that direction why waste money on a kit and by a Alita pump, a bunch of tenners and cheap sponge filters .

Kurobom Posted August 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Totally agree that a bunch of tanks with air driven sponges or HMFs would be the way to go for breeding projects. I'm just easing into having multiple tanks so not going all out at once hehehe... Good to know more about this style of filter! A canister setup would look even cleaner I guess! Really do like everything else about the kit. Soothing Shrimp and Vpier 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aennedry Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 If I had the space to properly develop MTS I would want to go with 20 gal longs, not tens. That is my dream... =^._.^= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurobom Posted August 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 Forgot to mention that DETAquarium will be setting one up as a demo for a session he is speaking at, so hopefully Daryl can chime in once that happens. If I get to check out the kit when I go to Angelfins for supplies, will share more thoughts then DETAquarium 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clansman Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 I have both the Dennerle 30'litre and the 50 Scaper tanks , great quality rounded front with only back sealed , the corner filter I did not buy or want it needs an additional guard to make it baby safe and there's reports it can still let babies in, the Scaper flow is a sealed hang on with all,the benefits of an external comes complete and has a great lily pipe outlet, these are quality but if it was a fish house maybe on the expensive side Kurobom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vpier Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Dont have any experience with Dennerle tanks but I do own a Scaper Flow HOB canister filter and love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
