Aqua Vital External Filters

[Jazzzz]

Has any one had any experiance with them?

Also I can't deciede whether to get the 800lph or the 1200lph for another £15 for my roma 125L tank.

The tank will probably be stocked on the heavy side.

No experience of them, but I would go for the higher turnover especially if your going to overstock slightly

 

[Jazzzz]

they seem good value at £50 and £65 respectivly would the extra power be a problem for shrimps though?

 

[minxfishy]

Just cover the intake with some netting, it wont effect the flow, but will stock them being sucked up

Have you looked into a tetratec, cheaper than that and a recommended filter by many on here?

 

[Jazzzz]

yes but they seemed more expensive linkies please to cheaper ones

A lot of people will recommend Eheim filters, myself included, however out of the two already mentioned i would say go with the Tetratec as these also have a growing fan base and have heard great things about their after sales care.

does the EX1200 from this site come with media?

 

[minxfishy]

All External Filters are delivered with the necessary filter media, tubes and connections

 

[Nick16]

thats on the xmas list then. will a rena xp3 and a tt ex1200 be able to run a rio 240?

The TT would do it alone, so yes, perfectly adiquate Always good to have a redundant system IMO

Dealt with that company before, and is where my two came from. Good service, deliered next day on one occasion, with everything needed to set them going strait away, and more
