Hi people are the Rena XP 4 filters any good...?

The guy i just spoke to said i only need one of them in my cichlid tank and not to FX5's

He put it down to the tank does not need a lot of powerfull movement in there but needs to be kept clean...

Is this true.. :good:
 
It all depends on what size tank you have and what type of cichlids you are keeping?
 
For your five foot cichlid tank I would say two medium sized externals should be your aim, (around 7 times turnover or more - times your volume by 7 and thats the lph you should aim for.)

On mine i originally had a XP4 and a classic 2217 but I didn't think much of the XP4 and replaced it with a FX5
 
While the XP3s are great, there have been reports of the XP4s leaking and they've just not had a thumbs up from some of the members here. WD
