    HOB suggestion for a 30gl

    I am going to be setting up a 55 gallon when it arrives. I still haven't ordered filters yet.

Also I was wondering if mixing and matching HOB's might be viable...

    Switching from HOB to Canister

    Finally decided to upgrade to a canister filter and am curious as to if anyone's had experience doing so... Would moving the media from my HOB filter to a basket in the canister filter have sufficient BB to not go though a mini cycle? Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

    Free HOB filter

    I have an old "Secondnature Whisper Power Filter" free to anyone who wants it. It's big: has two chambers for filter cartridges and has the number 3 on the cover. It runs, and pumps a lot of water, but you'd have to supply the filter media. Also, the intake tube is missing the cover, so...

    HOB FILTER MATERIAL vs Catridges

    Has anyone use Polyfiber batting material in there HOB filters rather than the cartridges? I've heard that the batting is also an excellent media and is actually a little thicker, more effective, less expensive and lasts significantly longer. If so, do you still actually need the carbon or...

    Hob filter stopped working

    So I was doing a water change today and my month old bio wheel filter just stopped working after I added the water. Just randomly stopped. I took it apart and cleaned out the impeller, multiple times and it won't start. I'm pretty pissed right now. Any help would be appreciated

    To HOB or not to HOB

    Since entering this wonderful obsession we all share I have always leaned towards HOB filters preferring the AC models. I have noticed the larger gallon units many of you have and those available on CL or other markets for used tanks feature "sump unit filtration" set ups. I would love to know...
