Cecil I am running two Hot Magnum 250 filters, one with ceramic media in the canister, the other with with ammonia neutralizing carbon in the canister that I change once a week. Both canisters are wrapped with mechanical foam filters that I freshen up once a week. Each filter does 250 GPH and is rated for a 55 gallon aquarium.
In addition I am doing a 16-18% water change every two days and I also have undergravel filters running in the tank. Nitrites consistantly test zero but nitrates are a little on the high side.
Water temps have been running right at 70 degrees.
