fabric to start drying, you have a problem. I prefer the filters with

What is the brand? How big are they. I foolishly positioned my 75
gallon tank too close to the wall and have a tight fit with the
Penguin 330s. I think it is about 4 inches of room to the wall.

The Emperor filter works on the spray bar principle. I have one on a 29
gallon tank at my parents house. It's a nice filter, but it definitely
won't fit behind your tank. I did the same thing with my 40 gallon and
now I'm pretty much stuck with the penguin as well. ::-(
