[joejoehead]

i have a 50g tank with an ocsar a few car fish and a parrot..... there all little.. and i know it seems clutterd.. but im on a budget right now...i have the hagen aqua clear 50 filter (hang off) and its great i love them.... but want to go to a 70... Will this be a good filter for it..... it says tanks from 50-70... and then the 50 says 30-50g.... does any one use a aqua clear 70 (hang off)...

I don't know much about the aquaclear filters, but it's always good to overfilter.

Go for the biggest model you can afford ( within reason though ) I think the Aqua Clear 70 sounds good enough!

Cheers...

I have a 72 gallon with an oscar & a plec. I'm running a pair of AC 70's along with an Eheim 2213. You need at least double the normal filtration with messy fish like oscars. I don't have any idea what a car fish is, but a 55 will be too small for an oscar, due to the one dimension being 13". Add in the parrot, another cichlid, and whatever else, and you have a really overstocked tank.

Look into a 75 at least, a 90 would be better.
