Hang-ons vs. Canisters vs. Sumps

If you stay with 125 get the fx5, then if the finances line up we can have another discussion on fx5 + ??

And you can search eheim 2262 for some good write ups from people way dedicated than I. I would post a link but on iPhone is too annoying.

I'm going to get the fx5 but should I leave one of the 400 on also

I would just leave both on...doesn't hurt. In fact, you can buy some porthos from any store, take it out of the pot, Rinse off the dirt and stick the roots in the 400's box, let the leaf just grow out of warer...it will help with lowering your nitrates.

No, there is really no comparison between fx5 and that eheim. Eheim is made for a much larger system capable of much larger bioload. It is an overkill for a 125 but great for my 300. I have not yet had to service it..and it has been 7 month...FX5 certainly can not claim this.

That is your opinion, and you will get much resistance to it. You can compare and they have been.
