Having issues with filtering my betta sorority tank.
Initially I had a small internal but it was too small.
Then I used my stingray but with the horror stories of these having stray voltages (and just because mine hadn't yet, doesn't mean it wasn't going to), so removed that.
Replaced it with a Fluval U2 but it's just too powerful. While you can change it to different outlets and such you can reduce the flow.
So, after much umm'ing and ahh'ing we've decided the best idea would be to get a small external.
That way I can still be sure of good circulation by having the inlet and outlets in opposites sides (double hex connnected tank) but the girls still get the full space in their tank and a suitable flow rate (I hope).
Any suggestions?
My other option is to use my Eheim 2224 on this tank - but will the flow rate be too much again?
Can I reduce the flow of the Eheim?
