It is a filter with increased filtering capacity of an aquarium needs better than tanksize filter suggestested?
EXAMPLE: A filter for 80 gal. in a 30 gal. tank. Will it maintain very low nitrate level and allow more fish in the tank? If so, which filter is better or an emperor penguin. Besides, what about of a protein skimmer and a powerhead, what is the best cheapest in the market for a 30 gal. What more need (for slatwater configuration)::: I have a 30 gal. tank, Stress Coat, cycle, swim testers, hydrometers, a mixture of salt, 10 pounds of live rock, gravel, Aqua safety, air pump. The deposit has been cycling for almost two weeks with live rock and snails on a lower filter, additives / water conditioners (Cycle, Stress Coat Etc.). I have to buy better filtering with Bio Wheel set and a protein skimmer. If something is missing let me know im could use the help.
My tank has been doing much better then put a larger filter on mine. My levels have been much more controlled, and the water is much clearer. I was using a filter 20 gallons in the 20 gallon tank of my, I switched to a filter 50 gallons, and seems to be doing wonders for my tank. My fish are all about 1 "and does not seem to have any swim against the current problem. I can definitively say your pulling more than the old filter, since any food that leaves the surface of the water goes to the collection filter. Asked to a similar question some time before you buy just the filter, and was basically told that you can not have much filtration.
