Koi Goldfish AND Oscars?????? WyAkak, do whatever this guy says!!! If there
was ever an ultimate test for a filtration system, I'd toss those three
species in abundance into a tank to see what holds up!

Buy an Aquaclear 300.. I realize Penn Plax is a slightly cheaper company
and I have used some of thier stuff, but in MHO, I like using the AC's for
thier realiability, ease of cleaning, and the ability to create your own
media filter bags for very cheap... I am currently running 2 AC 300's and
a
402 PH on my over stocked Koi, GF and Oscar combined tank.. I have around
80
inches of fish in this 55 US G tank. I beleive in going over kill on my
filtration... I believe I have enough filtration for just over 200US G's
on
this tank. Water is crystal clear and ammonia and nitrite levels are
zeroed...

Timmer.

What can anyone tell me about this brand of cannister filter? I'm
considering a Penn Plax 700 as a secondary filter for my 55g and I
have to admit that I'm not too familiar with the brand.
