What filter to use on a 25 gallon reef?

[drew930]

I was planning to set up a 25 rimless mr aqua ... Foster and smith have great deals on filters right now with aquaclear... Marineland and etc ... What's the best filter I can get . I want it quiet but still but off good flow . I'll have coral too ... And should I get one rated for 20-25 or go up to the 30-50 . Thanks

I have had experience with AquaClear, maybe for your tank size the 30 would be good, or you can even try the AquaClear 70 and do the Fuge mode which will give you more water volume and "Sump/Fuge" Capability, this is what I did with my 3G Pico and worked great.

Also, check this video which is a good DIY (This is Not my tank)

Okay . Thanks ! So does every aquaclear have the fuge mode or just the 70 and higher ... And what's the difference from regular and fuge mode ?
