Fluval 305

[debbie]

Was wondering if anyone on the board here has used the Fluval Canister Filters??
I need a new filter for my 46 gal bow front FRESHWATER tank and was considering the Fluval 305.
OR
I am currently using an Aqua Clear HOB and also considering getting a larger one of these.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

I use both. I have a Aquaclear 70 with just the filter pad and chaeto (and a clip on desk lamp), a HOB skimmer and a Fluval 404.
I have never had an issue with it. I actually own 2 of them. One is collecting dust after dismantling our 100g tank. Place it in an easily accessible place so it's not a pain to service.
