Tank-fit setup

Your tank. One safer setup.

Use tank dimensions, temperature, priorities, planting, livestock, and experience to screen filters, heaters, lights, substrate, CO₂, and test kits. Each match includes a reason and tradeoff. A category stays blank when the verified catalog has no fit.

01Where are you in the hobby?

This shapes everything else. Beginners get safer picks; experienced keepers get performance-first options.

02How big is your tank?

In US gallons. Not sure yet? Pick the question mark.

03How planted is it?

Plant choice and the CO₂ plan determine the useful light range.

04Temperature and filter priority

Heater fit depends on the room-to-water temperature lift. Filter priority changes which exact-fit option ranks first.

05What lives in there?

Livestock affects intake protection, useful flow, and the range of compatible equipment.
