Hello.
I have the 125 litre Juwel aquarium. TI came with a built in filter which is in the back right vorner of the tank and goes all the way down from top to bottom. I think this spoils the tanks look. If you read my earlier post you would know that I am changing this tank to a cichlid tank soon. Therefore I was thinking of ripping this ugly black filter out of the corner and putting a fluval filter or maybe 2 in in its place. Now my question is this. The fluval that I have at the moment for my second tank (which isn;t running) simply uses a sponge to filter out the dirt. The in built filter in my main tank has a white sponge, carbon, coarse and fine level of filtration and this is supposed to make a bacteria coloney to help the tank. How would a fluval do this?
Also, doesn anybody know if the back to nature backgrounds are good?
Thanks
