Easy To Use Canister Filter

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It should ALWAYS read 0 Nitrites and Nitrates.

Is this a question or a statement?

Ammonia and nitrite should always be 0; since you have no plants you should have nitrate
 
A nitrate of 20 is also an indicator that you're doing adequate water changes.....nice job!
 
So imo at the moment your sufficiently filtered. Only question are you hapy with the quality ? If yes then i wouldnt change anything. If no maybe you could get away with just changing the pads to something more dense instead of buying new filters
 
Had to check but looks like your filters are rated for 350 gph. I would want more flow. Could add a power heard or sponge just to break up dead spots. Or in the end gradually switch them out to ac110's buy one now then another when you have spare cash.

Other members may have better solutions so lets see what they say
 
If she's happy with the clarity of her water, no need to increase turnover rate given those parameters. So, no need for additional filtration or change anything........imo
 
nah nitrates even though we would like them to be zero and go to great lengths to keep them low with out some fancy stuff or a ton of plants its not feasible. Nitrates indicate that your bio filter/media is functioning and reaching the end result in the nitrogen cycle. WC'S remove the nitrates.
