Okay, so I have had this 5 gallon tank set up for about 4 weeks now. It came with this crappy filter built into the hood so I decided to see if I could make my own.
Here is the new setup.

Here is the filter I set up.

What I did was take out the filter pad and filled the space with the bio ball like things (I dont know what they are called). I then took out the bio wheel and put a filter pad there that has the activating carbon in it. From there the water goes onto some more bio balls and then goes back into the tank.
Will this filter work good or should I go back to the original filter.
