Finnex PX-360

[fshfanatic]

I am going to be setting up a small planted tank, probably either a 5 or 10 and want to use the Finnex PX-360 canister as it has more flow than my ZooMed 501. Does anyone have experience with this filter?

Nobody has used one of these? really?

Seriously?

I ran one for awhile worked fine for me but wasnt on a freshwater tank.

Thanks, I am considering it for a grow out 10 gallon tank for my pond.

never used one...but since it is only $40 i am interested in its performance.

I ran it on my 4 gallon pico reef. Worked great on that, should be fine on a normal 10 gallon. I have no experience with pond fish, aren't they generally pretty messy/dirty? If so and you have alot to grow out you might be better off with a larger canister, or for the price of the finnex an AQ 50 or 70.

Basically I am scooping out my gravid Mosquito fish, they give birth in the 10 and when they get 3/4" long I return them to the pond. If I allow them to drop in the pond the Koi eat the new fry..
