 | Penguin 150 Bio_Wheel Power Filter |
Lawnboy41 Fingerling Posts: 32 Kudos: 29 Votes: 0 Registered: 22-Mar-2005   | I just got a 20 gallon long fish tank. I got a Penguin 150 Bio-wheel Power Filter which filters 150 gallons an hour and is for up to 30 gallon aquariums. I was planning on keeping mostly mollies and a couple other small fish in the aquarium. Please help. Thanks Jamie |

| alexandre Fingerling Posts: 28 Kudos: 8 Votes: 0 Registered: 15-Apr-2005  | [font color="#000080"] I have the same filter in my 20 gal. regular and it seems to work just fine. I have a question about biowheels, though. I fill my tank up high enough that there isnt a little waterfall from my biowheel, it just silently pours right into the top of the water... I just started doing this to cut down on noise, and i was wondering if it is a bad idea to not have the water making bubbles as it goes in. Any thoughts on water height with a biowheel?[/font]  |
