Most of the UV units in cannister filters are very underpowered - not enough watts for the flow - and are probably a waste of money.
I read this quiet a bit while doing my research into a new filter. Decided if I wanted a uv I would just get a separate one. I Found out I need to move soon so I'm curently down sizing and no longer need the filter , I did end up planing to get a Aqua One Nautilus 2700.

Plus the males smell WAY worse!!..... :slfg:

I'm not sure why you want to change from 2 good quality filters to a single cheap filter? There are many reasons 2 are better then one, more filtration, redundancy, option to move filter to another tank, you can give one filter a good clean with out needing to worry about crashing the tank, and I'm sure many more reasons.
Becasue the eheim 2213 only pumps 440L an hour so thats 880L having two and on a 250L tank, so there is only 4x water turnover (if they are still pumping at there max, im not sure if they are). Plus I am planing on getting some smaller tanks for breeding (thinking cory's) and I can use the eheims on these. At lest thats what I was thinking :-?

I spent a bit of time with google and now I am thinking about a south american biotype, because corys and angelfish are both from that area.
As far as plants go, what plants are from that area and what kind of lighting do they need to grow?
I have just started to change my tank to south american. The plants I have used to so far are
Ludwigia Helminthorrhiza (floating plant)
Dwarf Sag - Sagittaria subulata
Stargrass - Heteranthera zosterifolia
Amazon Sword - Echinodorus Amazonicus
Christmas Moss - Vesicularia dubyana
hope that helps a bit.

Hey thanks guys im going to go with the Aqua One Nautilus Canister filter CF2700, according to what I've been reading there very good filters and they only use 23watts :happy2:

I’m going to be upgrading my filters. My tank currently has two Ehiem 2213 filters and although they seem to be working ok I want to change to a single filter with a bigger water turnover. As with a lot of people at the moment I’m a bit short on money and the Aqua One Aquis CF2400 sounds like it’s an ok filter for a very good price.
My questions are
1) Does what I’ve suggested sound like a good idea?
2) Are the Aqua One Aquis CF2400 quiet compared to an Ehiem? The Ehiems I have are very silent so long as there’s no air trapped in them.
3) Can anyone tell me how much power they use? I’ve tried to Google but I can’t seem to find anything other than that they are economical.
My tank is just a standard 4ft (1220mm X 450mm X 450mm)
Inhabitants are
3 Chocolate Talking Catfish (1 adult and two younger ones)
8 small Angel fish
4 BN’s
10 Black Neon Tetras
3 Julii Corys
Thanks

Why do I think the answer is 42 :-?

It might be hard to get Greg to make a tank without bracing though. I could not even talk him out of one brace on my tank. The price made it worth it to me though.

My tank pretty much sits on 26, The house I’m currently in has amazingly good insulation, its cool in summer and warm in winter :happy2:
Power bill was much lower this month

Every time your mother looks at your tank she asks if it’s the same one you had last time.
(I might have gone through a "I cant decide what I want stage")

Well time spent in the tank is only about an hour once a week (usually a tuesday) but i do sit and watch them playing all night (tank is right next to my computer) and i probably spend around 4 hours a night looking at all things fishie on the internet. Beats the rubish on TV anyway.

I bought some from Bunnings about a month ago, pretty sure they still have it.
-
I did this for my fighters, i had plastic jars and drilled holes in them and hung them on the side of the tank. Every week i let a diferent one swim around in the main tank and they seemed to be happy.
