I have decided to go with a canister filter for my 55gal FW...
I have an aqua clear 500 right now and have lost many fish to its strong intake tube and have been told by many to go with a canister filter...so i am...
i am looking at the Fluval 304, rated for a 70 gal with 260gph...should be enough, right? the 404 is $20 more and is rated for 100gal with 340gph...am i better off with the 404?
also, i currently have no fish in there and will be setting up a community tank...i am going to have sand substrate and possibly add natural plants in the future...
my other question is this...what media should i use in the baskets for optimun filtration in a community tank that will most likely have natural plants?
thanks in advance...
