fx5 in 55g

[knicks791]

I am thinking of purchesing a fx5 for a 55g. Will that be over kill?

u could have less but if u got the money i say go for it. cant have too much filtration hahaha

 

[djarmstrong]

Depends on stock ! ?

but yeah go for it . . .

DEFINITELY LOL

I would say its definitly overboard for a 55, if I had the cash I would invest in a bigger tank rather then a bigger filter.

you wont need a power head

If you have fish that like current it would be fine. Also this would be a good way to cycle the filter in prep for getting a bigger tank.

I would say get it. Because you know you'll get a bigger tank in the future. I had a 55 and bought a FX5 (yes overkill). Now I have a 210. FX5 and a sump filtration done. Get my point, you'll need it down the road. One less thing to buy. JM2Cents

It's overkill but if you can afford it then why not?
