So what would be ideal?
I was given a 26 gallon( i think) flat back hex that I have decided to just fill with great looking live rock and some invertebrates(snails,shrimp,crabs..). I had a custom glass top made and am going to use a current 135watt +lunar for the lighting. The question is would an old fluval 303 filter + an air stone be sufficient for this size tank. It would be a lot cheaper than making a custom wet/dry+ prefilter(since the space underneath the tank is to odd for a convention one). I have never made one before and am a little hesitant about making a prefilter. Anyone have any suggestions?
thanks!
