Rudeness wasn't really called for mate...
He wasnt being rude, and I fully agree with what he is saying.
While the aquaclear filter may be good, I also have to wonder if joejoehead has considered any of what vic is talking about.
Is the aquaclear a good filter? YES it sure is.
Did vic give him an answer about sizing? YES ... 10x the tank volume..... so can he use the A/C 50 on his 46 gallon tank?? well, i see that 46x10 = 460, and that the A/C 50, provides 200GPH .... therefore in my mind, that logic leads me to believe, NO it will not be a very good filter in a tank of his size.
About the other stuff, Take into consideration everything vic has said.... has joejoehead considered any of it? does he have CO2? will he have CO2? if so, then HOB filters period wouldnt be too effective for him.... aquar clear, penguin or otherwise..... leading me to believe that the A/C 50, again, wouldnt be a good choice for that particular tank.
in summary... is the A/C 50 a good filter..... it sure is, absolutly one of the best.....
Can he/Should he use the A/C 50 on his particular tank?? I would have to say no based on all of the above.
But i dont even have fish yet....... so whats my opinion worth
???
