U should consider those with easy pre filter removal,like oase biomaster, if budget permit.... Make yr maintenance simple

no $$
not quite sold on the term "pre-filter"
call a spade a spade
a filter is to filter the gunk
if used for nitrogen cycle then call it a reactor or cycler or something

never see the model i want listed

you have a pond ah?

filter rated for 793g is 3000litres :eek:


my English chui so i give a few example


tank 400L a filter rated for 800l/h will be ok filtering the tank x2. filter rated for 1200l/h will be above average filtering the tank x3. filter rated for 1600l/h will be good filtering the tank x4

its up to 3000L/h at max settings
and if you believe manufacturers claims
:s22:

planning to use at lowest settings with twist and turns and bends on hoses/pipes/fittings so even at lowest setting 1200L/h it will be halved so just abt right
like the ability to rev up when needed and you can never overfilter

normally like u say rating can fake, get a canister rated for 2000l/h fill with media the flow rate will drop too

Ask u all. Where should be cheapest to get a bare tank say about 15L. Thinking to move out of the LNY container, to a proper tank but without co2/pump/filter.
Possible to get at below $30 or cheaper? :p
