I've looked at numerous canister filters for my 125 gallon tank.
The biggest canister filter i could find was the Rena XP3. It says it will support up to a 175 gallon tank. The flow rate is 350gph.
350gph doesn't sound like enough to me. The Magnum 350 flows the same yet it only supports 100 gallons? What's the deal? Does the area of the media make that big of a difference?
I would rather get an 800gph in line pump and make my own filtration set up, but it would be an eye soar as it would have to go under the tank in the open space.
What do you guys think about the Rena XP3?
