Default Which HOF brand is better and reliable ?

Anyone have try HOF for 4ft tank with undergravel filter ?


I am trying out using 2 HOF ( Atman 600 ) for my 4.5ft x 1.5ft x 1.ft connect to my undergravel filter still not so sure if it's efficient , any suggest or advise ?

Thinking of changing to higher flowrate (e.g 800l/Hr )

Thanks

You considered getting just a cannister filter? Its better, more filtration medium.

If you're having rooting plants and/or base ferts, undergravel filters are not the way to go and the base fert will leech into the water and the roots can clog the filter up.
