[jisatsuguy]

i dunno how it works, but the guy said he will show it runs and stuff

sweet, thx. THIS NEXT QUESTION IS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOW OR IN THE PAST KEPT TROPHS...... will this 2229 and a 2217 be enough filtration for a 125gallon tank with about 25-30 trophs in? Also, is that a good number to put in there, or should I go with more/less of them.

[schance]

more filtrations is good and thats a great size colony. recomend a real wet dry with pump. have heard that the eheim wet dry could lose syphon. but ya would recommend a mega flow wet dry of somthing of that nature. also if going to you canister make sure it brake the water well for high levels of oxegyination

[newb]

could I add a powerhead(pointed at the surface) for that same effect?

[schance]

it would help oxygenation but there is no replacing a real wet dry. you can make a wet dry that works really well for alot less than buying a new one and people are always selling pumps.
