So I finally decided to go to Canisters and get away from the HOB style filters. Seeing as I am going into a 240 gallon aquarium soon. I ordered 2 Marineland C-530s in prep to get them established before I get my new tank set up and made.
So now I know Marineland has media with the filter when you buy it. Though as of lately I have been running phosguard by seachem in my hobs as the algae was getting out of hand.
Now with that said. What media out there is going to provide good biological mechanical and chemical filteration. Is the media sent with the C Series canisters good or should I look at changing that out to something else?
Any input would be great...and FYI I have extremely messy fish, Africans and Oscars.
