Aquel 500 and 70 filters with UV

[craigthor]

Anyone using either the Aquel 500 or 700 filters? Here is a link: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/produ...tchallpartial&Ntk=All&pc=1&N=0&Ntt=aquel&Np=1

That or I need to find a UV for and FX5 thinking of a Coralife 18 watt would that be 2 small for the FX5?

the same company also makes an internal filter with a uv on it

I am thinking of replacing the powerhead in my tank with one

AquaEl unimanx is a great filter, I have never had problems with any of mine(my mums/moms) (2 one 250 plus and one 250) and I love the fact that even though you don't get the UV model (plus) you can still put it in later if you want it... I would almost compare the Aqua El to the likes of Ehiem. In Australia they are a pricey unit, but so dam simple to operate and maintain, the media is awesome too! least you know if it's part of the filter, you don't have to worry about leaking from inlines etc. word of warning though, when you prime it, make sure you have the handle on, its very powerful!
