Hello again,
I have one more doubt, related to my new setup and my filter locations. I have read all the CO2 and Filter sections, and I don't find answer to this. Sorry if it is a repost.
I want to avoid spraybars, due aesthetics reasons, and I want to know the best location to install the 2 inlets and 2 outlets Lily Pipes.
My LFS says the better arrangement is like ADA, 4 pipes (two filters) on the same side, and the flow goes to another end and back through the carpet. Avoid a lot of debris deposit in the middle (because the mixing flows). I'm afraid the outlet of the 850 can't keep with the flow to reach the other end of the tank.
I have researched some famous aquascapers and saw the following.
So, after this, I'm more confused than in the beginning

- 1,70 tank
- 2 Oase Biomaster 850 Filters
- CO2 inline in both filters

I have researched some famous aquascapers and saw the following.
- Filipe Oliveira, even with only one filter, mount one pipe on each side, on the bigger tanks
- Green Aqua, always one filter on each side (1 out and 1 in each side)
- Jurijs Jutjajevs like Green Aqua
- George Farmer, I didn't find examples with two filters on photos.
So, after this, I'm more confused than in the beginning
