Elite stingray filters.

[Joey17]

I have 2 of these filters and i want to know if anyone here has them? What's your opinion on them if you do have one and if you don't i'd like to hear waht you have to say anyway? Should i get a different filter?

 

[Toirtis]

They have very little media and are ptobably best for about 50%-60% of the volume that they are rated for, which kinda sucks, as they are so big that they would really dominate a 5-10 gallon tank. A shame, as they look really cool, though.

 

[Joey17]

That's interesting, do you think i should get a different filter then?

 

[Toirtis]

I would....even a sinlge Hydro sponge filter or small AquaClear would provide you with far more filtration for your dollar.

 

[Joey17]

What filter would you recommend for 10 to 20 gallons?

 

[Toirtis]

For AquaClears, I would suggest the AquaClear 30.....but the ideal filter will really depend on just what you plan on having in the tank.

 

[Joey17]

Well, what would you recommend for brackish water tanks, and saltwater tanks.

 

[Toirtis]

10-20 gallons is pretty small for either brackish or marine.....except for perhaps a few bumbleebee gobies, or maybe a nano-reef (which is no easy or cheap thing to do). The Aquaclear is a good choice for either.
