Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I am currently shopping for a 2nd filter.
I currently have a Aquaclear 110 running the foam it came with, Biomax it came with, Purigen, and a little bit of Carbon.
Should I buy a 2nd Aquaclear 110 or buy the Filstar XP3.
I know the Aquaclear has a higher GPH than the Filstar.
I also know the Filstar holds a lot more media.
Whats better/more beneficial? Price different is 20+ for Filstar but not a big deal.
I'm looking for both better biological and mechanical filtration. Water is clear but not crystal clear. Also want to reduce my nitrates/nitrite levels. I currently do weekly water changes.
Fish/Bio Load.
