I've long been thinking that I'd prefer to have an external canister filter, instead of the internal one I have now.
I've been looking at the Fluval 205, which is rated for up to a 200 litre tank, but I only have 64 litres, would it be ok to use this filter?
I would go for the 105 (for up to 100 litres) but I'm thinking of getting a new tank in the range of 125 litres so ideally would like to have a filter which works with that too.
My question is, is the Fluval 205 a good filter? And is it and external canisters in general noisy? The tank is in a living room setting and the quieter the better! The current noise from the internal filter is ok, but we set it on "bubble" mode recently and that wasn't!
Any advice or comments welcome!
