Hi there!
I have recently installed a Aquaclear 50 filter on my aquarium, and I am really worried about having my fish go through the intake, it looks so large. From a fish perspective, it looks like the gates of hell.
I had put a piece of mesh from an old media bag over it but was trying to find a few other solutions. I saw a couple of people sticking sponge pre filter on them.. Can I use any type of sponge, or one designed specificaly for aquarium use?
What do you guys do with this?
I heard about the fluval edge, maybe I'll get this, but wouldn't it impede the way this filter works? (I'm worried it won't suck the large stuff out)
Maybe I'm just too much stressed for nothing, I do have plants that can eat the waste at the bottom of the tank...
Oh, and I'll be getting shrimp soon..
