In the process of moving to a 120Gallon from a 60 Gallon, just thought of a few more questions:
1) I purchased a FX6, which produces about 7x the circulation for the tank. I was told I should try for about 10x. I was planning to get an Aquaclear 110, just less maintenance than another canister filter and don't need to worry about leaks. Or should I instead of the extra filter, buy a wavemaker or power head? I seen a lot of people have those in their planted tanks. OR
2) Should I have a wavemaker with the second filter regardless. It's going to be filled with Tetras so I don't want to disturb them too much, especially since the FX6 is a beast anyways.
3) In the current tank I have 2 Aquaclear 70 filters, if I wanted to do a same day switch over to the new tank, can I just run the Aquaclear 70s on the new tank along side the new stuff for a week until the new filters have grown bacteria?
Thanks
