I have read the other threads on canister filters and I would like some understanding about the filter media as it relates to planted aquariums. For example, the standard material in the Eheim 2217, Ceramic hollow bodies, coarse mechanical prefilter, highly porous filter material and synthetic filterfloss.
Is this all that is needed to properly filter a 72 gallon planted tank?
Is more surface area needed for bacterial growth like the bio wheel set ups?
Starting a new 72g bow front from scratch, I love all the great ideas the members provide on this site!
