Please advise: Is my filter big enough?

Will this do the trick ?

hmmm, you may want to either upgrade or get another one, but that might be ok if you stock very very light

omfg.. xD

Whats the matter ?? Thinking i need a bigger filter .

 

[mfdrookie516]

well you know, they always say that the bigger the sump, the better because of the extra water volume.. i dont think they mean go get a filter that holds more water than your tank

Na just conditioning a new filter. What better than gold fish crap

 

[MichaelsLilGray]

Nice one. I've ran an AC110 on a 10g before for the same reason. The poor fish could barely swim because there was so much water movement XD

And I thought I was bad about "over" filtering.

Actually, you might want to grab a couple maxi-jets and attach them to the intake and output to increase flow/filtration.

 

[mfdrookie516]

i was thinking maybe adding a sump to the setup, something small like a 1g lol

 

[danny_75]

Its on my list, the plans are in the shop as we txt but its 3G

Na what i did last night was move it over to the main tank, Its running though a fluval 205 and the 205 is just a scrubber. The water is cristal clear. will take a pic and post in a bit.
