    What kind of Water Filtration do you use?

    Hello everyone,

    I'm just curious as to what kind of water filtration units do you use?

    I bought a Jebo 5 in 1 Overhead Filter for my 12 pcs discus.

    ...well, they all can't handle the water current.

    Right now, I'm using two internal filter, one has a bio-filter & white colored cotton filter, and the other one has a activated carbon plus the green colored spinge filter.

    How about yours?

    May I kindly know what do you used and why? is it better?
    Good Blessings to all,

    Sumps/Mini-Reefs - More surface area, greater flow through (in combination with a Ultra Violet unit)

    AquaClears (all types, Mini, 150, 200, 300 & 5000 - Best HOB filter on the market, need I say any more

    Canisters - I have several, Atman, Marathon, AquaOne, Via Aqua. All great filters

    Internals/Sponges - Best bang for you buck... cant go without sponges, good at polishing the water, and aerating it as well.

    Eheim Pro filters on most tanks, Fluval canister filters on others in conjunction with built in trickle filters. I no longer use sponge filters.
    Thirty-five years keeping and breeding discus, and I'm still learning :P
