New Tank

Orls87 · 2013-06-29 01:08:45

Hi i recently got a new tank i went from a 50L to a 125L, just wondering would anyone know what size filter and what would be the best filter to use? I've currently got a fluval filter that i bought with the tank but it doesn't seem to be doing an awful lot :confused:

i was always told when picking a new filter always get one that is rated well over your tank size i would say this one in the link would suit your tank, it is rated up to 160 liters

Yeah, I've been told that you want a filter rated for a tank twice the size.
