Alright,
i have an AC 50 and an AC 70 on my 29g brackish that i am just finishing cycling. The AC70 i bought used off of Craigslist. It has a a motor that is a bit louder than than the nearly silent AC 50 and, the tank being in my bedroom, is starting to get annoying. I already took the motor/impeller assembly apart twice and cleaned it to the best of my ability. I need to either get a motor/impeller that is as quiet as my AC 50 or find a quieter solution. I had been looking at getting a SUNSUN HW-302 but was not yet sure it was worth it.
so... questions.
is there a fix for the AC?
If i need to buy new parts which ones do i need? just motor? just Impeller? both?
If I need to replace parts, would i be better off just buying a brand new AC 70 for $30 after shipping from BigAl's?
Would buying the SUNSUN be the best option?
Would buying (insert canister filter name here) be the best option?
