75 gallon tank. Fluval FX5,Eheim pro2,AC110,18watt turbotwist uv sterilizer.

That's a good amount of filtration. Have you seen positive results in algae control or disease control with the Turbo Twist? I was thinking about getting one.
 
FX5 and XP3 on 110 gal.
 
210
right now only have an xp4 and a emp 280

going to add another xp4 and remove the 280 and add two emp 400's

with maybe an xp3

;]
 
Before getting my 220 I set my filters up on my 55 to start cycling the filters in advance, this was for about 2mths, on 1 55 I had
1 Fluval FX5
2 Aqua One CF-1200 canister Filters
1 Aqua One CF-1000 canister Filter
Fluval 4 plus internal

The 55 now has the Aqua1 CF-1000

Right now on my 220 I have
1 Fluval FX5 (want to add 1 more or a sump)
1 Aqua One CF-1200 (get the second one back in a couple of weeks)
I had 3 internals fluval4+ and 2 Otto 2000 but they're all stuffed (damn sand)
 
Two 450 gallon tanks with a 140 gallon wet/dry with approx 25-30 gallons of bio balls. constant water change drip system that changes 150 gallons a day. Water turn over is about 4 - 5 times per hour. 40 Watt Aqua UV sterilzer coming soon. 12 motoros, 1 gar and a huge green severum. I change the filter pad in my 24" x 36" drip tray every 2 days or so.
 
180 Gallon

4x Emporer 400's, Hagan in-tank filter, Wet-Dry with Dolphin 2200 pump in the sump.

125 w/Wet Dry (1800GPH) 2 Emporer 400's, AC 110

I have a 140g tank with a pond filter rated for 1300g and a am-top canister for 180g , it keeps my tank clean.
 
3 canisters, 2 powers, make 11x turnover on my 125, and some big wetdry's on the other tanks
 
my 29g has : Eclipse 3, 3 stage filteration, bio-wheel.
Rena XP3 : 2x Bio Zorb LoL =(

dunno the turnover rate, but i only got 4 fishes in their, biggest is my JD @ 5" and i do water changes 3 x a week, 33%.
Can anyone tell me the turnover rate of my 29g? I don't know how to figure it out, Thanks!
