What Is The Best Canister Filter For A 65 Gal?

[schooly20]

Hey there, I'm thinking about buying a canister filter for my 65 gal tank and was looking for some input on which brand and model would work best for me. Any help is much appreciated! Thank you!

Thank you! Do you know of any distributors in the United States??

They are available under a different brand name in the US. I can't remember that name though, stick arround and I am sure that another member will jog my memorie

I heard the Tetratec EX line of canister filters is the same as the Marineland C-series of canister filters.

Here's a site that sells marineland in US.

Can anyone confirm what I've heard or not?

BTW
I used eheim canister filters.

Certainly looks very similar to the Tetratecs

As above-brilliant filters!
I use a 1200 and a 700 on my 5 footer and am well impressed with them.
