    Adding another canister filter. Need advice.

    I have a 125g tank. I currently have a Filstar XP3. I want another canister filter before I start adding coral. What are some brand names that make good canister filters? I know the Fluval FX5 is good but kinda pricey. What about Eheim?

    HOB Protein Skimmer - Collection Cup?

    Took about 2 months to get my BH-300F collection cup perfect. It takes time and if it like mine you might find the sweet spot for it but that doesn't mean that the bubble level will stay there constantly. My bubble level flucuates(spelling) from time to time.

    Reef Octopus HOB Protein Skimmer..any good?

    I bought a Octopus BH-300F HOB and love it for the price. Once I got it fine tuned, all I do now is empty the collection cup. Very easy set-up
