220g Filtration question

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It's probably too small. That 2300 gph rating is probably at zero head.

Sump is definitely the way to go. You'll never regret it. Especially with monster fish, sump do a much better job of consistent water quality and less maintenance. I run mine with various bio media and poret foam.
 
Pick up two Jebao DCP 8000 pumps on EBAY for $89 each. That's what I run on my 220 and they have a ton of adjustability and make running a sump a lot easier. I currently only run mine at about 60% and that uses a combined total of just 70W.
