I went ahead and ordered the filter; I was leaning heavily toward the XP3 but in the end I took the cheap route and ordered the eheim 2213.

It's smaller than I was originally intending, but the...

I'm sure it will fit; the MJ fits nicely now... It's just too large to fit a second one; I'm curious whether or not the nano is small enough to be able to hide two of them.

Oh, if only there were...

Size difference between Koralia and Maxi Jet

my 10 gallon tank currently has a single MJ 900, but I'd like to upgrade that. I know two powerheads would be a better solution, but the tank is so damn small that I really can't afford the space.

The $99 is at Canadian retailers, including Big Al's.

Does the rena come with a spraybar or similar diffuser though?

One other quick question... I've been reading manufacturer material: Am I reading it correctly that the Renas come with a spraybar? That would help my decision(considering the fine sand).

I've marked the magnums off the list(along with the hob's). The Marinelands are looking really good, and the eheim still sounds good - I'm a mechanical engineering student, so I'm not so worried...

Sjm817: Thanks for that link; I read through it and now I've narrowed it down to either the eheim or a Marineland; that makes things much easier.

need help choosing a filter(FW)

I want to pick up a new filter for my 29g planted FW tank, but can't make up my mind, so I'm asking you.

I'm using IO right now, but when I used RC my Ca was 360, and alk was 9 dkh, give or take .5. I don't have Mg readings though.

As a reference, with the IO, I'm getting 340Ca and 10-11dkh alk.

Wow, looking as good as ever. Believe me, after following this through what, 3 splits? It takes a lot for us to lose interest.

P.S. Jeff, what were the dimensions on that tank again?
