i was always a fluval guy...imop...they are the best... but i recently got a rena xp3...for 60 bucks....it seemed like it took a little longer to set itself up...4 weeks, and now my tank is so gorgeous and i dont regret that 60 bucks i spent !!!

ps..its all in the media you choose

guys i've been hearing mixed reviews about the fluval 405 now, why is it when I order a product I get to see all the negatives and when I'm looking to order it I see all the positives lol?

 

[phoebekatee]

405 is brill, get it!

I'd go with this bad bot by AquaTop;
DF-200 Canister Filter - 216 gph
The DF Series by AquaTop is outstanding quality.

If you really want a solid canister filter check out AquaTop's DF Series;
DF-300 Canister Filter - 370 gph
And the AT Series is quality as well;
AT-300 Canister Filter - 317 gph

Those seem good too, but they don't have enough flow rate imp

So I got thr fluval 405 filter todayy yaaa!! I wanted to ask how much of a difference il expect with this canister over the hob I had in previously..as far as cleaning the water and maintaining proper levels of nitrate nitrite ammonia and ph; my question is will the results be much improved with the canister now in?

 

[phoebekatee]

Yes defo. Big difference for me

Yes it'd be a big difference
In one of my tanks I have a canister & a hob filter & the water is always clear

Clear water is simple to achieve if your cycled and have adequate filtration. But overfiltering is always good.

Fluval 405 is my vote. It's about $140 on amazon.

EDIT: ok i should have read more first, my bad.

Yes exactly
Also water changes are still important

What size talk do you have it on? I kind of want a fluval either 05 series filter or fx5.

The fx5 is great
But there's other ones that are good depends on the size
