Aquarium Advice FINatic
I was at Petsmart today and couldn't pass up a deal. I bought a Tetratec PF500 HOB filter on sale for 55.99. Originally priced almost $100.00!!! Anyway, it's for tanks up to 100 gal. These are the details on the box:
Living filter chamber
Fills with water and then empties back into the aquarium
Alternately exposes large surface area of Bio-Foam and beneficial bacteria to aquarium water and then oxygen
Becomes a Living Filter that breathes and removes ammonia and nitrites
Tidal flow alternating flow return
Returns water from the Living Filter Chamber back to the aquarium
Pulses on and off, creating an alternating current in the aquarium
Directional flow return
Continuously returns water from the Living Filter Chamber back to the aquarium
Agitates the water surface to improve oxygen exchange
Adjustible flow control
Allows slow flow at feeding time
Prevents wasteful overloading of filter with fish food
I have 2 Oscars in a 55 gal with a common Pleco. I'm looking to replace the 2 filters I have on there already. TIA
