I'm buying a 405 on Friday, I'm gonna replace the media. Any suggestions you might have for media customization for a 60 gallon planted community?
jcolon said:100% Poly-fill available at any arts craft store, walmart, target ect. Much less expensive than the same thing sold at LFS. Add it to the bottom 2 trays ... Ceramic media ... bio-max it comes with or something similar. It's how my Fluval 404 was set up.
Poly fill? Not really sure what that is.

jcolon said:A fluval 405 comes with 4 media trays/baskets each basket with 2 chambers, just stuff the polyfill in the bottom two chambers, you'll be shocked at the amount of dirt it'll collect. Really does a great job polishing water.
Thanks man! I appreciate it. How do you like your fluval 405 by the way? Anything I should no about it?
