Hello all,

It's sad to see these newsgrops so dead now. They were a wonderful
resource full of a lot of useful information. Now I only see spam.

I have a question for anyoe left.

I am setting up my 47 gallon corner tank again and would like to
simplify things a bit. I have a Fluval 404 canister filter I used with
the tank 2 years ago when I last had it set up. I am debating
switching to a power filter to replace it, just because maintenance is
much easier on these.

I have been a big fan of AquaClear filters and have one tank running
one now. But in the last few years, I don't know if something came
along that is better than the venerable AquaClear line.

Can anyone recommend anything good to use for an outside hanging power filter?

Andy

P.S. You know the drill. Remove the "nospam-" from my email address
to email me directly.

You are similar to myself, after tiring of filter changes, I have gone
back to all under gravel filters ...

However, I have no real info on what you request; I am only responding
to let you know someone is here. LOL

Aqua Clear is still the bestpower filter out there that will not break
your bank account with the need for propreitary filter media. Moves
lots pof water, is adjustable, and easy to maintain and as for varous
filter mediums, its limited only by your imagination. I have some AC
filters running over 20 years trouble free!

My Aquaclear is getting a tiny bit noisy. Would a new impeller fix that?
