I have the 70 on my 20g long. It's a little small. Long term I'm thinking the middle - 19"ish - Aquafuge.

Na no fuge cause I have a little chunk of some kind of stuff growing in the back of my tank where no coral are growing.
I LOVE IT I LOVE IT!!!!! I can put so much more media in this thing then I ever did with the penguin. I never even knew about these things because I have always been a penguin fan but these are made for more then 1 media and you can pick and choose 4 different types.
It also comes with a control valve and a little hook thing to control how it sits up against your tank. It reminds me of a mini canister filter HA. Now I dont need the bio balls because it has some of that white block stuff in there.

Yea I ran out and got one because the 'store' had then on sale for $40

I had one on my 46g cichlid tank.....I hated it cause it needed 3 different type of media..LOL...BUT as we know with FW all that is not as important....I may check into one for me 29G new setup....I really need to look for lights and a good protein skimmer first though

Yea in my calvus tank I only did carbon and the filter media because I was using the wheel. With the SW I never used the wheel.
I have the octopuss 100 SS with the surface skimmer and I love it.

The octopus is what you use on your SW tank? I need a good recommendation for a good protein skimmer for my 29G
Did your cichlids ever get sick where their tails seems to rot???

Yes the octopus is what I use on my SW. I use the 100SS so I think you would need the one smaller.
I have never had any fish diseases with my cichlids. Only with guppies years ago.
