To my knowledge, the prefilter has no electric motor. It just gets sucked from the main filter. If this is true, im guesing flowrate will be decreased. But at least you get lots of stages of filtration. Sent from my SM-G920I using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I had a custom made tank a while ago and local store is no longer there. Apparently is was supposed to be a high end tank, but i did not know much about low iron or starfire glass back then. If i put pics up here of the end of the glass tank, could you tell from the pics? Pics in the links...

Golden vine drift wood. So much tannins coming out, i cant beleive it. Sent from my SM-G920I using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hello, About 1 year ago i bought a small piece of golden vine driftwood. When i bought it i boiled it etc etc to the point that no tannins were leaking, and i had it in my tank for around 6 months and water was still crystal clear. No tannins leaked. I took out the wood and left it out for...

So this sunlight would do nothing to help on a planted tank? Sent from my SM-G920I using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I currently have a cichlid tank, which is set up near a window. Because it is near the window, the tank has some nice lush green algae growing in it. Actually looks nice. Does that mean if i was able to re do tank as a planted tank, the natural sunlight would benefit and help plants too? Im...

Throw in filter floss in both to clear up water. Add the same media in both filters. Mechanical and bio media. Sent from my SM-G920I using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Fish may have bloat unfortunately Sent from my SM-G920I using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Are you turning stop valves half closed to slow water, while filter is still running? If so thats the reason. Leave them on full open when filter is turned on. I know alot of people say its ok to leave them half closed while filter is on to slow the flow rate. But, If you leave them half...

Hi guys, just some questions about shellies: Do shellies dig gravel and mess up tank? Do they fight amongst eachother? Can i have dithers with shellies like danios? What catfish would work with shellies? What 3 or 4 shellies with catfish would work? Hopefully i can mix some colours of...

Can you buy pool filter sand with slightly larger granules... like 2mm to 3mm? Sent from my SM-G920I using Aquarium Advice mobile app

What is your old filter and what is your new filter? Leave both filters running together for 1 month so the new filter can build up on bacteria. Most here dont use black carbon. It gets used up in around a month (give or take) and will need replacing or it will leech everything back into tank...
