id personally go with fluval.I have fluval and rena and i was very disappointed with rena-it has no power on the output.I think i can pee harder than a rena filter
lol fluval fx5 are very expensive i would love 1 of those but im going for a fluval 205 to run a 4x1.5x1 it will do for the time being
Agreed, with your stock you might want to keep the 2xAC110 and the FX5 in that tank. and keep us updated on the tem.Merbeast;2549808; said:
sounds like the way im goin then...o and as for the temensis...i dont know what my friend was smoking but he hasnt got ich on him...lol he is perfectly fine and i came away with a steal!!!!
Fx5 from ebay for about $200 is prob the way to go on a budget. Fill it with scrubbies if your short on cash and replace with bio media as you can afford it.
You can use the bio from your ac110's in the canister and put another foam in your ac110's, double stack style.
imho

The 319 uses 154 sq ft of Polystrand Dual Function filter pads, 100 micron and 50 micron, to perform the mechanical and biological filtration. The pads have a hollow core which holds 20oz of carbon which performs the chemical filtration.
This setup is the same as almost 2 fx5's and cheaper.
