Fluvel U3

Hi,

Would a Fluvel U3 be too much in a 24" x 15" x 12" tank i'm going to use for breeding?

Thanks

J

filtration wise no, it would be fine.
My worry would be that a large internal would take up an aweful lot of space inside the tank.

I have a Fluval U2 filter in one of my breeding tanks, I have a trio of young Albino Bristlenoses in there. The problem I find with this filter is that although I have a breeding cave in there the male and one of the females like to go in the gap at the bottom between the filter and the mounting bracket. As you have to pivot the filter forward to dis-mount it for cleaning I am worried that I will trap the fish.
