    Canister Filter Qs

    Have you looked at the fluval FX5 at all? I bought one for my 125 gallon recently and love it. I also own an Eheim 2128. It's a great filter but IMO, go with the 2028(Same filter but without the heater. ) and an inline heater something like this one. If you go with the 2128, keep in mind that...

    Power was out, now what?

    I'm running a fluval FX5 and an Eheim 2128. I dumped the water in them right now and turned em back on. I guess we'll see what happens, worst case i have to restart my cycle right?

    Power was out, now what?

    Due to an issue with the power coming into my house my canister filters were without power for between 2 and 12 hours while i was at work. Power is back now but is it safe to just start up my filters again? Did the bacteria in the canister "Spoil" somehow? Fortunately the tank is unoccupied...

    speaking of air pumps

    Without a check valve you run the risk of water siphoning back into your air pump (and possible all over the floor) if the power fails or the air tube becomes disconnected from the pump.

    speaking of air pumps

    Are you talking about a check valve? Are you sure it's installed in the right direction? A check valve will allow air threw it in one direction but not the other.

    My GoodWill Purchase (pics)

    honestly a haven't given much thought as to what to put in it yet. Maybe a betta and some friends. I've always liked hex tanks, and while this is a much smaller tank then i'm used to it should be fun.

    My GoodWill Purchase (pics)

    Well, i stopped at the local Good Will Thrift shop with the wife today and found this in a corner by the furniture: Whole works for $20. It appears to be a 10 gallon. I'll have to figure out a better filtration system to replace that UGF but i'm sure i have something around here...

    Too many air pumps/bubbles?

    I was planning on using 3 whisper 100 pumps to power a total of 6, 5" bubble disks in a 150 gallon aquarium.

    Too many air pumps/bubbles?

    OK, what about Oscars and Silver dollars, maybe a catfish or 2?

    Too many air pumps/bubbles?

    Is there such a thing as TOO MUCH aeration in a tank? I LOVE the look of columns of bubbles coming up from the substrate and as such i tent to have a lot. Is their anything this can hurt? Thanks

    150 gallon tank for 2 oscars plus tank mates?

    Ok, i Do have a FX5 that I'd bought a while ago for another project that never came to pass so i guess I'll add that. Would the combination of the 2 filters suffice? I think I'll start with 3 silver dollars, then when there settled in and good sized add the Oscars, then maybe a catfish yet to...

    150 gallon tank for 2 oscars plus tank mates?

    ok, i guess i was assuming that the 48" x 25-1/2" x 75-1/4" 150 gallon tanks here considered the 150 tall

    150 gallon tank for 2 oscars plus tank mates?

    Ok, then for filtration and heaters, i was planning on using my Eheim 2128 canister filter and 2 250 watt visi-therm stealth heaters. Does this sound adequate?

    150 gallon tank for 2 oscars plus tank mates?

    It's a 150 wide 72 x 18 x 29 I was thinking of maybe a couple of tinfoil barbs or silver dollars and a cat fish of some type.

    150 gallon tank for 2 oscars plus tank mates?

    I've been considering filling my 150 gallon tank with a couple of Oscars and was wondering if it would be large enough for 2 Oscars and maybe a couple of other fish? If so, what fish make good tank mates for Oscars? Thanks

    what is your favorite canister filter?

    the FX3 and 4's are great for smaller tanks with there ease of use and reliablility, but for me the fx5 is the way to go because of it's huge media capacity and massive water movement.

    Ranco Temperature Controllers

    Has anyone used a Ranco Temperature Controller to control the heaters in there fish tank? Any feedback would be great. I'm considering using one to control the heaters in my 125 gallon tank (250 watt visa-therm stealth (x2) and 210 watt heater in my canister filter) to heat the tank more...
