awesome, I found a 1200gph on craigslist for like 40 bucks so thats probably what I'm going to use. Its for my red ear slider tank actually so the filtration has to be imacculate. I was going to buy a filter until I saw the price of a Fluval, and I thats when I started researching wet/dry's. They seem like they work better, and are far more powerful and provide wayyy better filtration. I also want to have 2 stages of filtration, what are the best mediums? I see people using those dish scrubbies, but I wanted to have charcoal or something just trying to figure out what would be best in this application. Any help would be GREAT!
