I was hoping to purchase a canister filter within the next to days b/c a certain store has 40% off and I need a new one.
I am going to to be putting two H. erectus in a 37 gallon setup. I want to make sure that I more than adequately cover the bio-load they will produce. Though I know I still have to do all of the regular maintenance such as water changes.
My pick was between two of the fluvals. Either the 306 or the 406.
Specs on Fluval 306:
Pump Power: 16W
Flow Rate: 303 gph
Baskets: 3 (Divided)
Specs on Fluval 406:
Pump Power: 23W
Flow Rate: 383 gph
Baskets: 4 (Divided)
Note: The flow rate is 383 but when the media is in they say that it goes down to 245. This is without adjusting the flow rate.
I am hooking up a chiller to either of these and I want to make sure I'm not going overboard with too much flow. I've seen my seahorses ride a current but that might be too much. Any thoughts of which one I should choose?
