I am going to buy a 10 gallon aquarium and put a chinese algae eater, 2 male swordtails, 1 male and 1 female dwarf gourmis, an albino rainbow shark, and 2 nerite snails. The aquarium will have a 5 inch bubble stone and a 15 gallon air pump. The aquarium will be heated to 78 degrees. There will be no live plants. I am leaning towards getting an aqua-tech 5-15 gallon box filter, but im not sure. I have heard alot of good things about bio-wheels. Im completely lost over wut kind of filter i should have. You guys always like specifics, hope that was specific enough, lol. Thanks for any answers!
Aqua-tech filter should be fine,they are just a cheap filter but I have one in with my cichlids and it works well.The only problem with them I find is there is no flow regulator to turn down the current which I like when I am keeping bettas.Make sure what ever filter you decide on the cartridges are easy to get in your area.
Aqua Clear’s power filter is a good one. It has different size such as 5-20 gallon, 10-30 gallons and etc. For a 10 gallon tank a 5-20 gallon should suffice.
I am using Aqua Clear also. It’s good and also easy to clean.
Aqua Clear in my opinion is the best filter in the world
get a submersible one like the fluval…..thats what i have and its great
the aquaclear makes a splash and have that waterfall noise.
I would recomend to check out your local fish store and see what filters they carry, I use the filter from marineland with a bio weel, its been running for over 3 years and have no problems with it at all, and with the water splashing noise effects can be eliminated bye topping of your water tank
