Just purchased my first HOB an aquaclear 50! Right now I have the carbon in it but i will probably switch it out for another bio media bag soon.
But, along with the AC 50 I have a AC 10 powerhead too. Is the AC 50 enough or should I continue running the AC 10? Also instead of the Bio media is there something I can put in the AC 50 that will naturally lower my pH? it is currently around 7.8 and I would like to lower it to around 7.0. SLOWLY! I have a GBR and I wouldn't mind seeing her breed eventually.
What type of sponge should I put around the intake of my filters, to keep the java moss I have from mucking up the filters?
AND! lol i know. What type of sand or substrate are my zipper loaches and GBR going to like the most?
Thanks,
Drew
