Hello,
I have a 45 gallon Salt water corner tank. I have two power heads connected to an underground filter and a skilter filter. I have decided to redo my filtration system because the Skilter Filter isn't doing it's job well!! I think that the filter is just a gimmick. I bought a Fluval 404 and I also wanted a Bio-wheel cause I wasn't sure of the Canister filters ability for biological filtration. I got a Penguin 303 filter. I was planning on putting both of these filters on the tank. I heard that underground filters aren't very good cause they just hold all the waste instead of removing it. Is this true are underground filters going out of style? Should I scrap the underground filter and use the two I just bought. Would a 670 gallon turnover rate, which is the two filters combined, be too much for my tank? Also I have been using water from my science lab that I work in. It is Deionized water. Is this water O.K. is it the same as R.O. water? I think it is but am not sure. I look forward to your answers.
