[AquaticLife] Filtration Challenge
Steve, and all who can reply. I have several questions in mind regarding your reply. 1) I searched about the ’sponge filter’ on the internet, and finally found what it looks like. I like how small it is, but I can’t understand what source of food can it provide for the fry (!),
2) what are the advantages of HOB filter against internal power filter, other than making more space for the fish? By the way, I’ve been inquiring about those HOB filters, and found two kinds, one of them is a “pour out” model, with a sponge inside it, and activated coal layer trapped in a strong flet ‘bag’. The other kind is tall (Brand: Jet), it can be stuck on the back of the tank, and has a long pipe than goes inside horizontally. I don’t know yet what type of filteration does it contain. What would you recommend ?
3) I’ll remove the polyster layer of the UGF asap. As for siphoning the mulm under the plate, is it necessary? doesn’t the powerful power head (1500 L/H) do that work? and if it’s still necessary, how can I do the siphoning if the UG plate is shut down from all sides and all covered with gravel, with no way out other than the power head opening?
Thanks for your kindness Steve! Have a nice day
