Hey everyone. First post here. I've got a 300 gallon arriving this month and trying to finagle a mechanical filtration system that can be completely removed from the system for changing. I was initially planning on running 2 FX6, however I don't like having to remove and disassemble the entire unit to swap out the nitrate farm filter pads. This led me to lead towards considering a sump system. And at this point, I'm open to either way. The goal is to have a stand-alone mechanical system that I can disconnect, dump the old pads, and replace without releasing all the muck into my system (pet peeve). Has anyone done anything similar to this design with a canister? In the bucket, I would run nothing but mechanical foam/floss. This would enable me to close the ball valves and remove it from the system, as well as use all available space in the FX6 for biological media. The tank will house a very large colony of frontosa.
