TetraPond filters on tanks

[toehead11183]

I was thinking of using a TetraPond 1500 (750gph) or a 2500 (1500GPH) on my 150. it seems like it will be a mess to use with the backflush valve and not having any type of quick disconnects when cleaning it. Does anyone use these on their tanks or have any imput?

Any special reason you want to do this?

If you've already got a pump it's cheaper.

Your going to have to alter the filter material since a pond isn't filtered as well as an aquarium. Your going to want to polish the water a little more.

You can make your own quick disconnects, or purchase them and install valves and drain line for the backflush feature.

I think we talked about this before somewhere.
