For a 600l tank I'd use two 500l filters independently.
"SkyCatcher" wrote in message ... Hi, I hope I'm not being dim but if I have a 600 litre tank can I use 2 x 300 litre rated external filters on it? If so should these be run in parallel (i.e. independantly) or in series(i.e. linked together). tia, Sky

When you clean one, you leave the other one alone with the nitrifying bacteria colony. This way, you never really wipe the good bacteria from your filters. 2x300 should be fine, just dont use charcoal, or if you use it, change it religiously.
