Aquarium Advice Regular
My new Eheim 2026 just arrived. It's going to replace my internal Fluval 4 Plus in my 168L FW. 3 questions:
1) No info in the manual at all regarding the time it takes for thefilter to develop enough bacteria to do it's job. Any advice on how long I have to run both filters before I can remove the old one ?
2) I assumed I would have theinlet and outlet at different ends of the tank. However, the book and length of tubing both suggest same end. Any problems with this ?
3) How high should the inlet be above the sand ???
Thanks in advance.
PS only paid £105, including tax and carriage and media (special offer). And arrived next day. See http://www.aquatics-online.co.uk/
