Hi-
I bought a Fluval U3 to replace my Aquaclear - just a question - it has the biomax cartridge (the white beads) - I remember having a problem with them in another tank - when I put them in the tank got very cloudy...but it wasn't an established tank at that point. So maybe that was the problem? I just don't want it to happen again...
Also - do I need to worry about the foam from the Aquaclear as it has all the good bacteria from the tank? Should I be somehow using it in the Fluval or the foam in there will quickly create its own bacteria?
Sorry if these are obvious questions - he's 10 years old but all this filter stuff is rather new to me...
Thanks!
