New motoro ray

Isn't the 2200 L/hr enough for a 75g tank? I have other filters anyway, if I should add another one into the tank just tell me.

powerheads and filters are 2 different things!!

Sorry to have messed things up, forgot to mention that I have an overhead filter, with the 2200 L/hr powerhead.

Rays produce a lot of waste, that's why you really need a lot of filtration, even with sustained water changes. Powerheads are usually the "polishing" the water items, not the filtration of a setup. Get yourself a good canister going on that tank (Rena xp4, FX5, or a couple Fluval 405s).

I calculate my filtration for "fish tanks" to be as close to 10x the return as possible, so for a ray tank you'd need to match that, or better (talking about tank, huge ponds is a different story).

Thanks a lot for the advice.

As promised, here are some of the videos. Sorry for the poor quality vid, I'm no camera expert, and I just used my dad's old digital camera. I just want you guys to see how active he is.
