hungryemo Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 Hi guys, I have a 2.5 foot planted tank that I want to have a Betta sorority in but I'm struggling with what filter might be best for it? I did have a sponge filter in there and it just wasn't getting the job done but the spare Eheim filter I have seems to be way too strong - even when I direct it against the glass to try and reduce the flow (though it is doing the job of filtering well). Is there a better filter out there or would two sponge filters do the job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenton Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 What size sponge filter did you have in there and how turned up did you have? I have a bunch of two footers for grow outs, and all have a large sponge filter in them turned up to max bubble rate - seems to be doing the job But if you only have smaller sponge filters, then yes, multiple will work for you.

hungryemo Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 I've forgotten which model number it is but it was the biggest one they had - just maybe not big enough, I guess? I'll have a hunt for a bigger one and see how I go with that now that I know it should do the trick. Cheers, Brenton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
