Do I need more filtration?
Do I need more filtration?
I have a 40 gallon. Currently have a aquaclear 110 and a penguin 200. Am considering replacing the penguin with another 110. Also added in a canister filter. Occupants are a 2" figure 8 and 5 bumblebee gobbies.

You're filtered just great!
You are getting sleepy... you only hear the sound of my voice... you must do water changes... water changes... water changes... water changes...

Re: Do I need more filtration?
I have a question here...when you over-filter, what are the dangers with the strength of these in getting a small puffer stuck to/in it?Pufferpunk wrote:You're filtered just great!
And is there anything one can do to better protect their small puffers? Something to cover the intakes? The same applies to circulation pumps. I've read black pantyhose as a suggestion, but that it really weakens the flow and makes them loud.
