i am building a bait tank and was thinking about using 2 or 3 of these.Do you think it could handle the load of many baitfish

Now it really comes to 1.how big your bait tank is2. Your feeding habits3.how many fish would be introduced per square inchAnyhow foam filters are the best and most simple filters around it would take days for it to build up bacterial load thoAnyway goodluck hope this helps you out

Yes as long as you use enough of them and squeeze them out once a week. Would use 3 in a 55 or 4 in a 75 etc. Not pretty but effective !

I use these for my breeder tanks 20 gal. it just provides enough beneficial bactiria for two 6 inch fish for couple of day as they require frequent water changes so i think (NO)

I believe this is the wrong tool for the job. Aquarium filters are intended to build up a colony of bacteria after some time, usually weeks, and remove ammonia from the water. For a bait tank I am guessing you will be using it for a shorter duration and at a much higher stocking ration that would be in the case of aquarium use. For bait I believe you need mostly aeration, and if ammonia buildup becomes a problem I'd look to some of the chemical cures.

The drag is incredible on this reel ,do you want to winch them in or play them,take your pick. I have used this reel on new zealand kingfish ,a dirty fighter of a fish and had great fun ,i also have a 20 size used on smaller fish .

I've used this rod a good amount now. It will serve you very well, but also keep in mind that it is a heavier rod and tends to not load as well. But it can handle alot and is a very solid rod, especially for the price.

depends on fish load in the tank, one is good for a few fish two is plenty in most cases

I have a lot of coral & a salt tank. If you have a lot of rock work or reef Set up you might get stronger as I have 2 of these in a 40g! You don't want a stagnant areas so figure where you'll need to create movement thru your rocks or if just fish 2 might be enough!JM 2¢

I wouldn't recommend putting gold fish in this small of a tank. Gold Fish create a TON of waste they need at least 10 gl tank to support them.

I would think so. That's about the size of my tank and I have two rather large goldfish and it works just fine.

It's a really nice little tank. Any fish will do great but it is very small. I think if you did somethinglike a neon or molly you could have up to 4 or 5.

Sorry. I was a gift. It was sufficient for a whole fish of perhaps no bigger than 4 obs. Hope this helps. Jane

Yes, I would never use this in saltwater, also I would not use it for anything bigger than Bluegill or Sunfish if you want it to last, its just not a quality piece.

I have 3 of these reels I am real happy with them. I use them for bass and catfish the line I use is 20lb breaded line super good for25lb catfish. I had no problem. I say give it a try and see what happen for the price you can not beat it. GO FOR IT

As long as you don't put extreme pressure on the rod and use all the stress on the line it can be used. The rod is very fragile and cannot be used with heavy lures... Good luck

I would not use it for deep sea fishing. Being a two piece and a little light, it just won't hold up to big fish. It is okay for light pier and surf fishing.

No, while its rated high, its really not capable of handling tanks larger than 30 gal. If you want a skimmer that will handle both tanks, I'd go one level up on the skimmer.

I have two that I use for trolling in the Puget Sound for the last 2 years, I would call myself a serious angler and they have held up excellent. Take care of it and you should get long life from them.

The rod, perhaps, although anything more than a couple of pounds would be a challenge. The reel is not a saltwater reel and will likely not hold up well if used routinely for saltwater fishing. Occasional use, if followed with a thorough rinse in fresh water and proper lubrication would probably be OK. If you want something for routine saltwater usage, I would not recommend this. If you want something packable and portable, for pond and creek fishing for panfish, trout and bass up to a few pounds, this is a good choice.

I have use it for both fresh and salt water. Have landed fish fiften to twenty pounds. As long as you do not try and horse them in it works well. Its only limitation is the weight used. I do not use anything heavier than 2 oz.
