FOWLR setup

[Samw]

I'm not a big fan of external cannister filters because I don't like the cleaning part of it. I have a magnum HOT filter still in the box because it is time consuming to assembly, disassemble, clean, reassemble. Too many parts compared to an Aquaclear.

My preference would be to add a skimmer and an aquaclear for housing carbon. I've tried both Remora and Bakpak and both work well. I like the waterfall type of output on the Remora better than the pipe output on the Bakpak.
