Hello gang - hoping someone can answer this question. I have a 6 year
old FOWLR 55 gal setup that has been on the following setup: undergravel filter system (I know, it's from way back when) Penguin 330 biowheel filter system Hot-Magnum (hang on the back) Pro filter Protein skimmer. This tank has been going strong - only problem I have is keeping the phosphates down (green hair algae growth - treating with weekly 10% changes and phosphate sponge.) The problem I have is that the Penguin Biowheel apparently stopped working; perhaps the motor wore out (it is 6 years old). I've unplugged and replugged, and filled it back up with water but it doesn't cycle. Being cash poor do I need to go out and replace it with a new one? Yes, the undergravel filter is a bad thing these days but have lacked the time and resources to pull it out without killing my fish (niger triger, two perculas, and a blue dot puffer). Bottom line is if this system will work just fine on the HotMagnum Pro filter I have on the back of the tank. Thanks in advance for your aid and assistance. Regards, Wendy |
