Which is Better?

[Bosa]

I was just wondering which do most prefer? I'm looking to buy at least a 125gal and was thinking of running a wet/dry sump along with maybe one or two AC110 I see alot of people with the Emperor400, I was just wondering which one is better.

wet/dry would be better

 

[Dmaan.]

yeah but he said wetdry with another filter.

i'd just got with a decent sized sump.
1/3 the tank size, maybe even 2/5 the tanks size.

so a 40-55 gallon sump i'd say would be sufficent.

pleco read it next time hehe


id say either
ac you can stuff more media in.

 

[Dmaan.]

yee.

Ac has a more powerful motor and room for more media, i personally like the mechanical side and ease of use aswell as looks of Emp 400's better. But AC110 (old 500) is the work horse HOB, so i'd defo go with that.
