I toodled on down to Petco and cashed in on their $1 per gallon sale, got myself a 40 breeder for our 3rd tank. I thought I might try to change it up and wanted some opinions on what y'all think would be best for a 60/40 pfs/eco complete, lightly planted low light tank. The residents are likely a solo or duo of Orandas with a small cleanup crew if I only get one.
1.) 2x Fluval U4s. My brain tells me with (coarse) sand in such a shallow (16") tank, that this probably isn't a good idea, but I like the thought of having nothing hanging on my tank since it needs to look as uncluttered as possible.
2.) 2x Fluval C4s. This is my "I'll try something new" version of having a single AC110. Any thoughts on what the bio-media capacity of two of these would be compared to a single AC110?
3.) 1x Aquaclear 110. Good old ironclad. If it can't get any better than this, then it just can't.
Canisters for this tank are out of the question unfortunately. No where to hide them! I'm very open to suggestions for other brands that might fit my needs. Thanks!
