Replacing 3 Filters With One

[Ludwig Venter]

In my "pub tank" - topic ("Now I'm really relying on you guys"), I've currently got 3 normal submersible filters and they're not managing... (more or less the equivalent of 3 x Stingray filters)

I've now bought the filter below from bid or buy (SA's equivalent to E-Bay)... Should I remove the other 3 filters from the tank (1,100l) and install this one, or would this filter be ok on it's own???... or should I leave them in with this filter as well??

It all depends on the lph output of the 3 filters combined vs the new filters output! if the new filter output is greater then it should be ok! However it may pay you to install the new filter and run maybe the best one of the other 3 alongside it!
