Hi,
setting up a new 36 x 15.5 x 25.5 50 gal tall.
replacing the old fluval 404 and penquin 350 i was using in my 110 gallon.
lighting - AHS 2x96w
CO2 - greenleaf kit with PH controller
plantload - medium
fishload - medium to heavy, 5 clown loaches (2-3"), 2 yoyo loaches (4"), 1ea zebra and kubotai loach (1.5"-2"), 10 red eye tetra (all 1.25", probably getting rid of), 5 guppies (but that always changes), would like to get a couple more kubotai and zebra loaches.
i was looking at using one 2217 and one 2213. i would just get two 2215s but i may eventually switch back to a bigger tank (possibly my 110g) when i buy a home next year, so the two 2215s would be too small. i could use the 2217 on the future larger tank and just purchase a second 2217 while using the 2213 for something else.
do you guys think one 2217 and 2213 will be a good choice now for the 50g? i would get two 2217s now but i think thats overkill on a 36" tank, and i dont want to waste electricity (bill is high enough)
next, whats a good UVS to install on 2217?
will the 2217 be able to handle a UVS and Hydor inline heater both on the outflow?
now i was looking at running 3 accessories. a hydor inline heater (love these, will never go back to intank heaters), and next a UV sterilizer and possibly CO2 injection.
would it be ok to run two of those on the outflow of the 2217 (if so which ones?) and then one on the 2213? if its best only to run one accesory on the 2217 i guess i could always use an intank diffusor for the CO2.
