Benefit Of This

What is the benefit of having two filters and is it possible to have 2 heaters as well?

better/faster filtration keeping your water clean*er, more circulation in your tank helping keep the substrate free of detritus.

If one dies, the other filter will in most cases be able to support the load on your tank giving you time to fix the other filter.

Staggered cleaning of the filters helps reduce the risk of bacteria loss from agressive cleaning.

If your pipe dream of a 900 gallon tank ever comes true, that will need some serious filtration.

yes you can have multiple heaters.

more filters = more filtration, a necessary for bigger tanks imo.

I keep two heaters, just in case one goes bad, there's always one to cover.

Im waiting....

The guy with the 1000 gal uses powerheads alone at 66,000lph, so i would love to know what his filtration and heating on top costs!

I think i saw 1000w mentioned for consumption....

900G?

What dimensions is that going to be?

We go through £30 of electric in the summer every week and around £50 every week in the winter. I think I'd be wiring direct if I was planning on a tank that mahoosive.
