quick question

Reefer769 · 03-12-2004, 06:10 PM

hey!

i was just wondering if i could put to use my mini penguin bio filter on my 30gal. I was thinking of taking out the bio wheel, and just letting it filter out all the loose flakes or particles floating around.

This wont screw things up with my cpr bak pak right?

Do you think its a good idea?

It would work but I think you would have to change out those filter pads every couple of weeks.What you could do is just put the pads in every once in a while to help clean the water and the rest of the time just use it for more circulation.
