@grkniko1 These tanks are more for saltwater so that is where my focus is. I can't see the return pump being that strong but I can remember that angelfish do not like the flow. Look on the main page of our shopping site. Look for the hydor rotating deflector. This will attach to the return nozzle. It spins around and disperses flow but it also cuts it down by 20-30%. That should help with your fish.
@grkniko1 Filter floss can be found locally. We do sell a filter floss that is very hard to find locally but other options can be substituted if you do not want to purchase ours. A sheet of ours would last over a month.
It works best to order over the website by going to shop / mediabaskets / com All I would do if you called is go on the site and do the same plus I do not like taking payment info over the phone, it is a lot less secure.
sooo if i buy this product. what is the up keep on it? do i remove all the dirty spongies from both chambers and the two bags,, one is charcal and other is like a white pvc with holes i guess... and keep the second chamber free?
@grkniko1 It all depends on the media you use. We recommend filter floss on top, and changing that as needed say 1-2 times per week. Purigen in the middle and chemi pure elite on the bottom. Those can be changed every 3-4 months.
Because you have a freshwater tank you will still need the white things which are bioballs. They provide your biological filtration. I would remove the sponges, I don't like them. I prefer to change filter floss instead, keeps the water crystal clear.
question.. im new to the hobby of fresh fish(angelfish) what does this pruduct to for the tank... does this pruduct replace the sponge filter on both chambers?
@grkniko1 Yes it would be a replacement for the dirty sponges. It drastically improves filtration by forcing water through media. It makes it very easy to change your media.
I'll be ordering one from you guys next week. Looks like a great product. Can I put one in the second chamber as well? For example, chamber one with purigen and chemipure and chamber two only as refugium with macro and maybe some miracle mud in a small container?
inTank you. This media basket is designed for the first chamber only. You can put chaeto in it if you like it has large shelves. If you want to separate macro in the second chamber you could make something out of egg crate pretty easily then use the media basket in chamber one.
does the 24 gal jbj nano cube come with powerheads or do you have to buy them seperately?
