See, i was gonna get a external and mess about cutting holes in the lid and generally makinging a mess of my tank, but i though hey lets just up the powerhead to a 1000ltr/hr and see how it goes, admittedly the tank has only been running 4 months, moderately stocked and the water is crystal clear (polishing pads), water stats have been A1 from day one (with mature media). I have modified the filter slightly by adding 2 boxes of ceramic media and removing the nitrate and carbon sponge. I'm getting decent turn-over in my tank and everyones happy. Plants are doing well, no algae. I think people are to quick to jump on the 'lets think the Juwel filter is rubbish' and give it a try.
also when you look at the media, there is as much/if not more media in a Juwel internal than you Fluval 305's.
