Just wondering if this pond bio-filter http://sunterrausa.com/filtration/product/300106 would work for a 300g tank? I know I need to get the pump still, but my local store had one on clearance sale. I got the 300107 w/ the built-in UV sterilizer..

I like the idea of being able to backflush the canister...If you plumb the hose right, you can water the garden while taking out water during a water change...The UV feature is nice as well.
I'd still make it just one part of the total filtration system.
BTW what did it cost after the sale?

I like the fact that it has the UV sterilizer also, that was a good selling point for me b/c those by themselves aren't cheap. It was like $60 at Wal-Mart actually...
Excellent Price for a UV by itself...add a back-flushing canister?..for 60clams?....Excellent deal for sure...
