on a trigon 350 tank what would users recommend about the filter media?
obviously the 2 blue course sponges at the bottom and then the fine blue sponge are a must,but i have seen several topics about the green nitrate sponge and the black carbon sponge,are they really needed,especially the carbon sponge,someone mentioned that you only really need that one to remove anything that is isn't wanted in the tank?,like what?,also juwel recommend using 1 white filter pad,but others have mentioned replacing the black/geen filter with more pads,how many?,sorry if this sound a bit stupid,but since the tank has been running (approx 8 months) i have always used all filters at the same time,done my 20% water change every week,cleaned the gravel 1 a month,added stress zyme and stress coat weekly at the correct ammounts,and my tank still looks a little "cloudy" sometimes....
any tips/suggestions would really be appreciated
thanks in anticipation..
