I am looking for a tank with an internal filtration system - I have a spot on my kitchen work top that needs filling, but I don’t want anything external to the tank. Looking at the juwels with the corner box filters, but heard bad reviews about the filters themselves.
Then I saw the fluval M60. Designed for marine, so has built in sump at the back. Good size for the space too.
Can someone more knowledgable take a look and tell me if there any reason why I can’t stuff it full of filter media and use it as a freshwater tank?
Taking a look at a few pics online, it looks like the water flow between each chamber is at the top, which makes no sense to me, would I not want it flowing top to bottom to top? If so, how easy is it to break the silicone, turn the dividers around and silicone them back in again?
Found one fairly local second hand for a good price, they’ve only ever used it as a freshwater tank
