what do mfks think if i put so bio balls in a foam in my hob filter will i t work

 

[TCZeli]

not sure as they will probably be full submerged the whole time, therefor wont get much oxygen to substain a ton of BB. Also your flow rate will lesson quit a bit, which will reduce your turn over rate and mech filteration.

It should do anything to flow rate. It will build a little bit of bio space, but there are better things to put in a hob than bio balls.

so what do u guys suggest to put in a hob besides foam and carbon

 

[Bderick67]

No bio balls only really work well in sumps.

what about nano bioballs??? I use in one of my HOBs on my 135...

i have 2 ac110's on a 47 gallon .. and one has filter floss, bio balls and a bag of purigen.. the other has the foam block, 2 bags of the nano (little black) bio balls and a bag of ceramic ring.. that tank is really crystal clear and nitrates are around 20 so i guess its working ok.. i have the bio balls in bags sitting in the top most layer--that way they are maybe 1/2 submerged..

 

[cichlidboy671]

so u whould suggest putting nano balls and ceramic rings....
can u put it in the same hob
