Aquarium Advice Activist
I currently have a 75 gallon tank that is occupied by a BGK, Red Tailed shark, Gold Severum, 2 rope fish (1 that seems like he has been ready to kick the bucket ever since I got him at the LFS 3 weeks ago but hasn't) and a Blue Crayfish.
I have a aquatop 400 that I have been running for the past 3 months. I clean it once ever 4 weeks. The problem is that it does not pick up much fish waste. There is fish waste all over ...and it sticks out cause I have white sand as my substrate. So I am looking for advice on a filter that has better suction or more power at cleaning the waste off the bottom of the tank.
I have a decoration that sits kind of in front of the input area of the filter...I don't think this is causing the problem though as there are at least 2-3 inches of room around the input.
I was looking at reviews for the Rena XP4 on Amazon and seems like folks with turtles (who from what I gather are messy) like these filters...anyone have experience with these or other filters that may assist me ?
