[peckhead]

is this a good wet dry? it is "amiricle" i got it with the 90g tank i recently bought. to me it looks like a tank with 2 baffles. can this type of filter work with a the large bioload i will have? humu, puffer, sfe to name a few.... thanks

i have the amiricle 400 for my 175,and have no pblms, with it.just make sure the filter is the right size for your tank. bigger the better.

 

[peckhead]

this is all it came with...do i put any filter floss or anything in? can anyone take a picture of there set up? i feel like all this is is a tank with 2 baffels

basically thats all it is. the chambers are for filter media or whatever esle you want to put in it includeing LR rubble live sand or other media> i am not familiar with this particular model but it looks as though its missing some parts in the middle compartment for a trickle filter of sorts.
does it have any numers markings or words on it or on the bottom of it?

well the hose which im assuming is the part im going to hook up to my over flow....right? and then go into the first chamber on the right(where the hose is) then into the middle where maybe ill put a refugium? then the last section where i can put a skimmer and return pump. how does this sound? it is going on a 90g tank. mostly aggresive fish...

 

[peckhead]

l*w*h/231= gallons....right? then it is 16 gallobs..there are no words on it other than Amirical. thanks

here is another picture i found.
Model 2000 measures 24 x 12 x 14, with 3.0+ gallon of Aquaballs; for aquariums of 75-150 gallons.
so all i really need is a piece of pelxi glass and drill it and put it in the middle with some filter floss and then replace the bio balls with a refugium and get a little sponge for the bottom of the last baffle so no sand from the refugium gets sucked up into the pump....
does this sound good...would this support the fish i have?

 

[peckhead]

no one ever answers me

 

[joshradio]

Yeah, that'd be fine for ya! Jost make sure to get the flow control right to maximize the filtering

 

[peckhead]
