best bang for the buck

Looking to spend $75, I can get an ac 110. are there any other filters better than ac 110 for $75 ?

I dont think so. Emperors are decent but the ac110 is a real workhorse. Proven time and again.

Hard to say without knowing tank size, what you are keeping/planning to keep in it, ect.

the ac 110 is by far my favorite HOB filter, id say go for it.

75 gallon and FATF. (African tigerfish).

p.s. the FATF is the smallest species (12") and grows slow, Im just gonna grow him out in the 75 b4 moving to my 180. im really lookin at mechanical filteration more than bio

mine too, my question is is there any canister that works better than the ac110 for $75?

Ac 110 FTW at that price point. I have had both, Emperor is good, and cheaper but not nearly as flexible or capable imo.

You would have to spend twice as much for a used canister filter with the same flow rate, and canisters are a pain to open on a regular basis (especially if you're using it more for mechanical)

For what you're wanting, I think that the AC110 would be perfect.

Hard to go wrong with an AC110
