HI All
Quick question
I have recently started my first tropical tank (http/www.boyuaquarium.com/en_ArticleShow.asp?ArticleID=1639) and have noticed that unless i have my tank filled up over the filter pump at the top of the tank when is a power outage that causes the pump to get turned off and on then the water doesn't get sucked up through the pump. Guessing this is due to insufficient vacumm
Therefore my question for anyone with filter expertise,
Is there a filter out there that doesnt require the water level to be up to the top of the tank or is there something else i should be doing to allow the pump to suck up the water without having to do a imediate water change to get the water level up to the top of the tank?
