    Best Canister Filter

    Just want to get everyone's opinions or options on a new canister filter. I am thinking about replacing my Fluval 306 canister filter with something else. I've looked into the SunSun and the Penn Plax Cascade canister filter. Which is better; anyone have either of these canister filters? Thank you!

    Fish Shipment

    Hey! Just a quick question. I have a fish shipment coming tomorrow in an insulated box. Will my fish be ok till I get home that evening, around 5ish? I live in Northern California. I'm requesting the box be left in the shade. Thank you!

    HOB and canister filter intake and outtake placement

    Hey all, I just recently upgraded to a 54 gallon corner aquarium. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on the best placement for the HOB filter (Aquaclear 30) and the intake and output hoses on the canister filter (Fluval 306) on the tank. Thank you!

    Tank stocking- 40b

    I'd like everyone's honest opinion; but be nice please. Is stocking a 40b with 5 fancy goldfish overkill? I do 2-3 weekly water changes now and I have two AC HOB filters on the tank (a 70 and a 50). I am pretty OCD when it comes to the maintenance of my tank. Again, I'd like honest opinions...

    Unsolicited advice received on Prime

    While checking out at one of the big named pet stores, I received some unsolicited advice on using Seachem Prime (since that's what I was restocking up on). She said to be careful when using too much of it since it adds ammonia to the tank. I told her I haven't had any issues using Prime nor...

    Fish bottom sitting

    Hey all! I just transferred my two fish, one oranda and one black moor, from a 29 gallon to a 40b. They are currently sitting on the bottom, moving around very little. No clamped fins, just hovering towards to bottom. Could that be due to stress? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium...

    AC 50 or Fluval C3

    Wanted to get people's opinions on which is better and quieter. I know both HOB filters are made by the same company, just wanted some input and thoughts! Trying to decide which to purchase. Thank you! Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

    40 gallon breeder tank

    I am looking to purchase a 40 gallon breeder tank in the near future. I currently have an AquaClear 70 HOB filter on my 20 gallon tank. Would that be sufficient enough for the 40 gallon or should I purchase a second smaller filter (like an AquaClear 30 or 50) to go along with the 70? Or would it...
