Hi,
somehow I have managed to crack my filter and so need to buy a new one.
The cracked one is a Sacem Marathon 1000, which I have been running with sera siporax media ( I think it took about 3.5 boxes), no other media as recommended by my lfs.
This wasn't bought by me but came with my tank (second hand).
My tank is planted and I read that I don't need as big a capacity filter for a planted tank as an unplanted tank, but I cannot find outwhat I should have.
Oh my tanks size is 6x2x2 foot, but there are quite a lot of slate rocks in there that I made caves out of.
So can anyone give me some advise on which filter to go for size/type and make.
I don't really want to pay more than £100(UK).
Thanks in advance,
Graham.
