So I just bought a rena xp3 how should I set up my filter media
vialznk said:polyfil is always used last in most canisters to keep the impeller from getting clogged up with gunk, but placing it before the biomedia is totally fine. That way you protect both. Just keep it clean. Im not one for keeping dirtied sponges in the filter to prevent "drastic" biological bed disturbances ie washing your sponges.
By the way what kind of tank and fish do you have? Is it planted? Do you use ferts?
