    Aquaclear 70 HOB Filter

    I actually found one of these in my LFS for a fiver! Just missing the lid and the very end of the inlet. BARGAIN :D I'm also using it for a pico marine. Going to go for a tiny shallow cube I think! There's some great tips for modding it with its own parts to make a great fuge on nano-reefs.com!

    Best Sponge filter?

    They're basically all the same. The more grooves in the sponge, the more surface area for filtration. Just get the most simple looking one, that way there's less parts that can break!

    Surface hoovers?

    Is it like an actual hoover ? Like one you would use on the floor ? I guess you could get a wet/dry hoover. Wouldn't be cheap though ?

    Filter cleaning

    I'm old fashioned, so all I do is wash the gunk from the media (but not TOO thoroughly) in mature tank water. Kris

    2x Turnover worth it ?

    Okay mate, what I will do is this.. Use the 60L/h one till I'm permanently home for the summer and I wont plant the tank till then. That way it will be cycled etc when I return, and I'll have some nice mature media. Then I'll buy a better HOB, the 400L/h one you mentioned, and plant it. Yeah...

    :lol: I was thinking you must get a lot of attention with a name like that! Paul it is :D Nice to meet you :lol: Thanks for the link, I must say.. I do like the look of the 250L/h corner one. What great prices! That media suits me, I'm sort of old fashioned with my filter media - coarse...

    2x Turnover worth it ?

    I recently acquired an Azoo Mignon filter, the flow says 60L/h.. I was planning to use it on a 30L tank. Im wondering whether to leave the 30L lying idle until I find more powerful filtration for it.. Or to take a chance and use it ? Will this be enough flow for a planted tank with some small...

    TOXIC POISIONING?

    I think it may have been the sponges, this happened my friend before when he wanted to buy cheap sponge to go in his internal. He bought it from tescos as a car wash sponge I think - it was very dense. About a week later he was getting a funny smell from the sponges when he cleaned the filter...
