1. 1
   1 breeding tank, 300 L · about 120 × 45 × 55 cm, set up like the home tank
2. 2
   2 grow-out tanks, 600 L each · about 125 × 65 × 75 cm; twice the breeding tank, never smaller than this species' smallest tank
3. 3
   Shared air pump and air line · one line along each shelf feeds a sponge filter in every tank
4. 4
   Heat the room or each tank · 18–25 °C

In total: 3 tanks, about 1,500 L of water. A litre of water weighs about 1 kg, so check that the floor and rack can take the weight.

Sizes are worked out from the breeding tank in the guide. Tanks fit a standard 120 cm rack when they can; bigger tanks go on their own stands.
