h-o-b filter *without* a waterfall return?
hello,
I'm looking for a simple hang-on-back mechanical filter for my 75gal planted tank that doesn't have that "waterfall" type return. is there such a thing? high flowrate would be a plus as well. if I have to, I'll go with a canister. the last canister I had was a Fluval years ago and I remember it was a pain to clean the foam on a weekly basis (my preference). I recall having to take out the top two empty baskets to get to the foam, getting water all over the floor, etc. any ideas or suggestions? thanks! |

The TetraTec power filters look like they have the output under the water. I've only seen photos though, not the real thing. Marineland has a HOT magnum canister filter that might fit the bill. I've never used one, so I can't really comment on how it works. -- Andrew Roberts, Richmond Hill Ontario royalwulff(at)sympatico(dot)ca |

It works well, but I only hang it on the front of the tank, it seems like it would be quite inconvenient to hang on the back. -- - Charles - -does not play well with others |
