  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Hah! I wish there was less distance between us so I could bring it by and have you check it out.
J jaws7777 'll look into a 2262.I have replaced my FX with a beat up Aquaclear 110 for the time being.
2262 is costly though but its a beast man way more flow than the fx. I like the ac's soo easy to maintain and are relatively cheap.
The only canister I will use is XP's. I've never had a 2262, but I'm at the point now where if it's not a sump or ac hob I don't want it.


Totally agree. Sump or ac. I'll never own a canister again in my life. If i had to the 2262 would be the one.
 
I am also of the opinion that sumps are best for big tanks
I have them on both of my biggest tanks but I've always used another type of filter as an aid since I have numerous large growing fish.
Is this the XP you were referring to?

That's it. I hope they havent changed but my older ones are some work horses. Super easy to clean and you can see when it gets dirty.

I was looking to get one today. This thing is like a $400-500 can lol. I can build a sump and setup an Auto water change system for less than that.

Totally agree but some dont have the ability to go with a sump. Its pricey add on the poret foam and its even more $$$
 
its a classic.
 
You honestly have never seen it? That's almost like meeting someone whom has never seen Star Wars lol ;) I couldn't even count how many times I have seen it. I bet at least 100+ times. Already watched it 3 times just this season so far.

Lol, no couldn't tell you anything about it. Actually, I couldn't tell you much about Star Wars either. But trust me, I have my things I know I've seen 1000s of times. I love watching classic Christmas TV episodes.
 
I have never seen it before either.
