As the mother of all Canister Filters your Fluval FX6 Filter Media Setup is very important. Understanding the flow of water in your canister filter is the first step. This way we can place the mechanical filtration first before the biological. The water in your canister should be at its cleanest before reaching your biological filtration. This will prevent detritus from clogging up the surface area of your biological filtration. The fluval fx6 filter media placement should always be Mechanical,

I'm so glad that I installed the excellent Fluval 307 external filter and UV clarifier on my heavily stocked Malawi tank at home. The flow remains strong after 2 months with ZERO maintenance, I've not touched the filter since it was installed and the less you have to clean a filter, the more effective it's beds of beneficial bacteria are at removing ammonia and nitrite from your water. If you can afford one, it's a wise choice to setup an external filter over an internal filter! #filter #cichlid
