anyone know about this filter? its a hob.I have a 75 and thinking of putting 2 on,the tank will have 5 silver dollars,2 cory cats,2 festivum and maybe a couple of rams .will this be enough to handle the bio load?
 
I see bigalsonline has them for $25.99 each. If this was the price range you were looking at, then its a pretty good deal. Each filter says it is rated for an 80g at 300gph. This does not seem bad, for the fish you have listed. If I were on a budget, I would buy them.
 
I bought a cascade 300 a week ago for my 30 long and it does a good job. However the water flow is pretty slow if you do get two I would suggest not using the biobar thing it comes with it slows the flow down even more. For a 75 I would suggest to emperor 400s
 
well decided on a ac-500 and emperor 400 since there is always debate on which one is better i fugured ill try both,lol my next question is my tank is only 4 and a half in from the wall do i have to move it?
