I'm going to use just the FX-5 for my tank and will monitor and will probably add another smaller cannister filter if there's a need.

Read that the difference between the biohome and biohome+ is that biohome+ have nutrients so the bacteria grows faster. ie, less cycling time? Can anyone verify that please

I plan to add ceramic rings into 1 tray, coral chips + biohome into another tray while the most bottom tray I'll put activated carbon. Do you all think it'll work? Each tray i will most likely cover the top with a cut-to-fit japanese mat..
Forgot to add, my fauna would be ITs, bichirs, 1 x L190, an aro and other predatory fishes.
WC should be 15% every 3 days as i use the water to water my plants at home .
Pls advice thks!
As I told u earlier bro, if I were u, I will supplement with a OHF which makes changing/washing of wool a breeze.

I know u dun like the unsightly looks.

Also for OHF, I feel that Mr Aqua CR & bacteria house is good enough.

Actually Mr Aqua CR works well in canister too.
