Default Fluval 1 internal filter too turbulent for 5G quarantine?

"LM" wrote in message
I've been eyeing Fluval 1 internal filter for this... has rating of
50gph flow rate. is this too turbulent for quarantine tank?



I too have used fluval internal filters (also the Via Aqua 302; And the
305, 306, which also diffuse air into the tank), they all work well. I
would like mention to make sure and rinse your sponges in declorinated
water or tank water (then throw the water away), so as to not destroy
the bacterial colony in your sponge. Also try and use the air injection
feature available on many internal power heads (the Fluval does not
have this feature).
