Hi,
I have a 15G (53L) freshwater fishtank. I have been considering a 3 stage canistor filter from aqua one (does 500L/hr). It states that it is suitable for fishtanks from 50~100L.
Would that be ok to use in my tank? (by my calc at optimal level of perfomance i would cylce the water thru the filter 8~10 times per hour..)
I want to replace my internal filter, also want to use it to suck the crap out of the tank (clean the substrate) and then clean the mechanical filter, at the moment to properly clean my soil i loose around 40% of my water which is way too much. But I will still replace water in my tank (around 15% per fortnight).
PS Is that too fast, the filter will be mech, biological, biochemical...?
