using 65gallon filter for 10gallon tank?
Hello people
i decided to upgrade my filter to an outside aquarium filter (right now i have filter that's hanging over my tank), and i found CASCADE 700 canister filter(65Gallons) on craiglist pretty cheap. Is it safe to use it in 10gallon saltwater fishtank. |

yes. just see if you can limit the flow, or use a spray bar to disperse it.

Re: using 65gallon filter for 10gallon tank?
i dont see an issue with that at all but as scibbled said in a 10 gallon you may want to do something to limit the flow a bit.

+1. Should keep the tank fantastically clean

Yep, just gotta watch the flow, that 10g at full throttle will be a whirlpool. Id get an inline ball valve and use that to regulate the pressure.
