filtration questions

[thor meeki]

I use a fluval 404 & a magnum 350 (media basket filled w/ small aquarium gravel) on a 55gal. Works pretty good for me I would recommend something similar for a 75gal.
Maybe 2 fluval 404s or 2 eheim 2217 better yet 1 of each.
I don't have any experience w/ eheims so I don't know if they are better or what.

Tough question this has been discussed many times. I have a 2215 on my 55 with an ac110 and I got invisible water...

I would personally go with the 2217
but IMO you cant go wrong with the fluval it has good flow and decent space inside for stuff. Not too sure about bypass though
What about an eheim pro ?

eheim pro=money I don't have.

I hear that, tough times rite now. If $ is a problem I would go w/ a ugf.Tryed & true for the $ you can't beat em. I'm holding on to my old one just incase a new tank ever happens. I know it's not what you had in mind. Just thought I would put it out their.
