Getting free filters and have questions...

[AquaQueen]

Hi everyone, Someone is giving me two filters for free, they are too large for their tanks and want them to get some use...anyway they are a Fluval 104 canister filter & a Fluval Plus2 submersible filter, I am basically wanting to learn everything I can find out about the two. If you have these or have had them in the past could you please give me your opinion on them. I want to know if I can use them in my existing tanks and are they good, bad, any special things I should know about them. I appreciate the help. Thanks, ~Bonnie

Oh really, that's good to hear, thanks Cocoa. I will probably go get them tomorrow then. What size tank you think they would fit?

[cocoa_pleco]

i think theyre both for tanks 20g.

i think theyre both for tanks 20g.

OK perfect then. Could I put them both on my 30g tall(guppy tank) You think it would be ok or not enough filtration? I think I know what you are going to say, though I dont want to jinx it...lol Either way I can use on my 10g if they are not enough for the guppy tank. I need something new for the guppies though I have to do way too many water changes on that tank and I am always either giving away fry or trading the older ones(that I haven't gotten attached to...lol) for feeder golds, I know I'm pathetic...lol anyway I'm sick of my cheap filter that leaves more work, I know I will still be doing changes & vacs., that's a no brain-er I just want to do less on that tank. Ya know?

about how many guppies? with a good water change schedule you could probably pull it off
