Atnixon, are you telling me I can do away with my Fluvial 404, and my internal filter, and just use them to increase flow, and let mey 70lbs in a 55g tank do all my filtering? But keep my protein skimmer? I have no refugium or sump or anything. Cause the media for those things is super expensive.
I ended up talking my way into letting this guy sell me only the part that I needed for the filter. The only place that I could find that sold the Cascade Filters though was PETCO, kind strange. But thanks for the help everyone! Who knows, maybe one day I will just eventually add more live rock and do away with my filter. But should I buy a protein skimmer for my tank now? Or is that just something else that isn't really necessary?
Yeah thanks Jojo. Got ahead of myself. I meant media for my Fluvial and other filter was expensive. I understand that sumps and refuges have no media only live rock. I have been researching them, but am only seeing half the picture. Once I get the main tank settled I will do some heavy research, so far just been reading bits and pieces. Thanks.
me personally i run a big fluval fx5 external filter,a jumbo ehiem internal,live rock and a protien skimmer....its always better to over filter then you cant go wrong
