I found APC simply by doing a google search on Eheim canister filter reviews (more specifically the Ecco line). I found the wealth of info here to be very beneficial!

well lets see. first I decided i wanted to plant my tank so i logged off of DAOC and logged onto the Internet (wow this place has grown). goggled for planted aquariums and found LiveAqaria.com. from there i followed a few other links from Google (skipping all the auction sites and such). eventually i found fishgeeks forum (haven't used forums before that one). after looking through a great many of the posts following a great many links to see what people were referring to. many of those led to plantgeek forum threads. so i started reading those forums and following those links and i started posting there and then on fishgeeks. i asked a question and was referred to this site. so here i am not only do i have MTS i also have MFS

I don't remember exactly how, just that I came across it, and many of the original folks (Art, Carlos, Tom) were fellow Floridians. So I thought I'd check it out...
