What do y'all think of the

Aquatop canister filter with built in uv sterilizer?

 

[bud29]

I don't think they are quite as nice as fluval canisters, but they are well-priced and still clean better than some HOB filters.

I like my equipment to be separate. If something breaks I don't have to replace the whole thing.

I didn't think of it that way....
So I was thinking of getting petsmarts 46g tank(euro tank)
Would a penguin HOB 200
And a smaller canister filter like the one above be more than enough filtration?

Which Aquatop filter are you going with? You may not need the HOB filter.

Agreed. I run a solo penguin 200 on my 37 eith only an airdrome as extra and its actually very clean and clear! Depending in the price of the canister, you may want to get just a 359b and have only that. So what's been goin on with ya? Any new stocking plans??

Well I'll decide that after I have everything in my home set-up and the tank is cycled

Would a penguin HOB Emperor filter be enough for a 46 gallon tank or would a smaller hob filter with a canister filter be better

 

[CharlieKlein]

Wht model? Probably 350 So what's your stock plan??

Turns out the aquatop doesn't fit so does anyone have anything against the marine land multi-stage c220 filter?

 

[Brandon4432]

Ive had that filter. The marinland its great. Now i only go with sumps but with canister the c222 will get the job done by itself but sometimes i run another small filter for a "bio backup" so to speak. Incase one filter breaks you have a back up so your tank doesn't crash.

Excuse me i meant marineland c220

Ok thank you! I will run the HOB filter off my 20g just for the bio backup
