To all fluval canister filter users?

[ahboy22]

To all fluval canister filter users. After hearing so much good reviews about it, I finally got a Fluval 304. I have a 46g with a whisper 60 on it right now. So, I was just curious what do Fluval owner here use for their media & configuration method. I know my filtration might sounds way overkill but eventually I known I will be getting more tanks. I am thinking of using Filter Floss(mechanical) on the Low tray, Carbon(Chemical) in the Med tray & BioMax(Biological) on the Top tray.

Appreciate if anyone can share their experience & advice with the fluval canister filter.

I have a the old 403.. I dont have it set up right now but if I did it would be full of bio-rings and have a sponge on the intake for mechanical filtration..

I've got the 404 and use biomax on top, followed by filter floss, then carbon and zeolite, then those octagon shaped ceramic rocks for mechanical & biological filtration. Works for my 65 gal tank quite nicely.

I have the Fluval 404. Same set up as hopalong w/o the zeolite and carbon...real nice. How did you like installation?
