    I thought this was pretty cool and will come in handy some day for me. So I thought some of you'd probably find it useful too.

    Have a great day!

    Great Info - Thanks

    If you find a list of which impellers / filter pads are interchangeable with which filters that would also be very useful.

    He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

      That's a great resource, thanks!

      Makes me think that we should do something like this (HFBers). Include info which PP asked about, as well as the maximum tank lip/rim's width each filter can fit on. We just recently experienced a problem with this - Geoff bought a small AquaClear which didn't fit on the rim of the no-idea-what-brand-but-looks-retro 20H I recently acquired from an awesome guy, and Geoff did some stunning DIY-work on that one! )

                        I did a test on the Aqua-Tech 5-15. I am getting 92 gallons per hour. That's about 6 changes per hour on a 15 gallon.
