Today is Sunday, so that means water change day! This morning I did the wc on my 29 gallon, then later this afternoon I did the water change on the 5 gallon QT tank and the 10 gallon shrimp tank. In the QT tank, I have 4 espei rasbora I got from walmart - they've been in QT for a week, and so far they have showed no sign of illness :)

By the way, not sure if it's been mentioned earlier, but this thread is more than a year old now!
 
Today I took a leap of faith and grabbed a lightly used Fluval 306 for $78 off ebay....supposed to arrive by Friday, so here goes nothing!
 
Nothing.
Haven't even turned the tank lights on today.

My allergies are going insane, I was supposed to do soo much! W/c's on the bigger tanks and ship like 6 packages of fish and plants!
 
That's not a bad deal if its lightly used like you say. I got a Rena xp4 last year locally on craigslist for $80 and it's good for 260 gallons but I have a turtle so half that lol. Bought a 304 on eBay a couple years ago when I was a newbie and it's still kicking. eBay is great for used filters just gotta know your price and know when a seller is sketchy
 
Let us know how it goes. Ive always been weiry of buying filters used. How much are 306s new?

Will do! I got it from a large eBay store with great feedback (something ridiculous like 99.8%) and a 2 week return policy so I figured it was worth the risk, they run about $120 on Amazon and $150 or so at the big box stores if I remember correctly, and they said it was only used for a few months, so if everything pans out it was a steal.
