Filtration for cichla

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i'm really starting to second guess myself on the 18" height on this thing.... too late to go back now... do you guys think this is enough height for a longish amount of time?
 
Its all good lol. I guess realistically by the time they need more height on the tank they will probably need a longer wider tank as well anyways...

That would be about right! ;) Height isn't that important until they hit the 18'' mark and then as you said it's time for another tank!
 
I think an fx5 along with the 405 will be fine. The best eheim alternative is the 2080 bit is a lot more expensive. You shouldn't need more filtration till they outgrow that tank.
