just testing the waters here, but id like to upsize my canister to something with more GPH, so if anyone is lookin to downsize or just wants nice canister this one is great, about a month old.

$80

now $60 FIRM and has a valve to adjust flow built into the hoses

they flow isnt very strong, but as far as i know theres no way to adjust the flow, and i no longer have any of the extras, just the canister and the hoses.

I have an xp1 and there was a little inline valve thing it came with that would let you adjust the flow.

What size of tank is it rated for. Is it going to be too big for my 33gallon.

Also does it come with any media? What did you run in it?
