Hiya all,
I’m resetting up my 500L tank. It currently has 2 all pond solutions EFX canister filters on it but with the price of electricity I was wondering if it would be more cost efficient to switch it across to sponge filters and an air pump.
I’ve seen other people use sponge filter very successfully even on larger tanks. However I’ve never used them myself so am unsure of the amount of sponges needed or size of air pump to properly filter an 500L tank.
It’ll eventually house 3-4 fancy goldfish with maybe 2-3 weather loaches. I haven’t decided on the final stocking it depends on the filtration etc..
