    Leanne, that's such good news. I'm glad everyone is nearly back to normal. Keep us posted on what you find out about those balls at the bottom of the filter.

    Hello Leanne.
    Just wonderring how your fish got on?
    In my experience, external canister filters work a treat - you just got unlucky with those little white things. Also, the aquarium looks better without the internal canister. Less fuss when you need to give it a clean. I'm sure if you got some good quality filter medium, you would be happy with the results.

    Hi Bill Im pleased to say all my fish are back to normal, eating a looking great. I ended up losing all my loaches a catfish a couple of platys and a black neon. Ive had no problems with my canister since i stripped it down and scrubed it out so I guess i learnt my lesson there and I hope other people here that think you can just buy a filter a plug it in like me realise that too. Im still running my internal filter and will continue to do so for a couple more weeks antil I know its safe to turn it off. Once again thanks for your advice and comments and Im glad my crisis is over.
