40g set up coming along nicely.

Trying to get some good shots of my tank but cannot seem to make it happen. These turned out alright. 🤷

Finally made those metal skeleton stands look halfway decent.

Hope you're having a wonderful evening wherever you are. 🥂

Cannister filter question.

I have a 40g running rn with my RTS in there, and have been seeing horror posts about heaters exploding. Never happened to me. But I want to make sure of that.

I have 2 sponges and a Oase thermo 100 and am wondering if that heater will be sufficient enough for a 40g tank.

Being that the Oase filtration is meant for a tank like 30g or less (preferably less...) will the built in heater struggle or be fine? My apt stays around 70 degrees.

I would just test this theory out over a week and keep an eye on it myself but am about to leave for 2 months and do not have that luxury, hence the need for help.

Thanks in advance. Here are some tank shots for tax purposes 🤣

New set up, needs some time to balance back out and get some growth but very pleased with how this has turned out. Bonus 3g looooong shrimp tank photo at the end for funsies.

Seems like it's not compromised but wanted to ask if I should be concerned about this?

It's on the front of the tank about halfway along the lower edge.. thanks! 🙏
