[Mgamer20o0]

if you had the money to buy one canister filter right now what one would it be? make a pitch for others as to why they should buy it. also the twist..... say something good about the previous filter mentioned.

XP3 or 4. Big square media baskets, and no crazy interface... Just prime and plug in. Also, their big soft siliconey tubes are cool.

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.

I like my FX5...

Want to pick up a mag 350 for water polishing though.

I'm running 6 different size Fluvals with no complaint. From the 204 to the FX5.

I'm running a Fluval 305, a Cascade 1000 and a Magnum350. I like the Fluval best because it's quiet, well constructed and powerful.
Now for the twist...
The Mag350 was cheap and is a good filter for the money.
