My fluval 404 just died after about 5 years and was a pain to prime.What size for an almost full 60 gallon slider tank..M or L.

I'd go with with two smalls or a medium depending on the dimensions of your tank. I have a small on one end and a medium on the other for my 80 gallon tank and it works beautifully.

I have 2 Mediums on a 100gal freshwater and they are the best filters ever. Been running strong for 8 years. That being said, get the large.

A medium canister will work wonders for that size aquarium. I have a 75 gal and the med is perfect

depends on the size of your tank i have a 7 gallon reef tank i bought the pf15 for and i love it you can slow the rate down and all my corals are fine aquatop seems to make a nice pump to fit the sizes you need i am happy i bought mine hope this helps

that all depends on what filter you have, for me i have a turtle and a 60gallon tank, so i use about 100grams on a fluval405 , and it lasts about two months with clear odorless water. your situation might be different , i think this should be more than enough if only for regular fish.

I just got the 406 on my 20 gallon with one young red eared slider. Turtles have so much waste they recommend taking your amount of gallons of water you are using and multiplying it by 3 to figure what size filter you should use. I went a little bigger then I needed to. I could have went with a 306, but I figured I would be upgrade the take size as the turtle grows. The water flow fully open was a little strong, so I have is about half way and turned toward the side glass. When it was fully opened if was kinda like watching the turtle swim on a treadmill!

I have a 40 gallon planted tank and I use the 406. It works great...however, you have to be careful that you do not break the priming handle...mine came broken but I just fill the canister before I plug it back in...and the impeller cover wears out and gets loose and then you have this clacking noise which can only be fixed by replacing the impeller cover. The old models had clips on both sides to hold it down but this model has only one clip and after awhile it gets loose. I have a few extra covers just in case. They are not that expensive.

I have a 29 gallon and am barely getting by. Soft coral only, Some LPS,no Acans or SPS. I'm selling mine on eBay next week.Customer service is spotty at best.

They only recommend the 3152 for tanks up to 50 gals. so the 3155 might be a better option for you.

I bought the 24" for my 30 gal tank. It said 24"-36" I believe. The light was 24" and the legs extended out the sides so it would fit up to 36". Great light but if you have a 77" tank I doubt that 48" will work for you.

These should be sized by how much air you use. This is a small unit sized for one device . For a whole 60gal system I would look at the 1/2" or better

I would get the biggest one that fits that tank....I have been satisfied with the large unit I have. Built well enough.. Qapla

my tank is a 46 gallon bow front.. so mine would have been the 36 inch lid.Mawlid fit fine I didn't have any problems at all.

Honestly I have a 50 gallon with the 306 on it and I'm not very happy. I'm trying different things so I can't condemn the 306 just yet. What I can tell you is a have a 75 gallon for 2 pretty much full size Red Eared Sliders with a condo so the tank is full and I have about 20 Goldfish with the Fluval FX6 and the water is crystal clear! Have it on for almost 2 months and haven't even need to do a water change yet. So worth the money. And if at this point I wish I would have gotten the FX6 for my 50. My advise go with the FX6 --so worth the extra money!

I purchased a fluval 306 for my 60gal tank & the water flow is strong. Depending on how big your next tank will be 206 is suitable up to 45gal, 306 up to 70gal, & the 406 is up to 100gal.You can always adjust the aquastop valve to regulate your water flow without harming the motor, but not sure it may still be too strong of a water flow for a 30 gallon tank. (my fluval filters values are always fully open)

For the bow fronts I'm accustomed to it sounds like your tank would be a 72 Gallon. So the 72bf all glass versa top would be the right one. If your tank is an aqueon then the 72bf top would be right. The 36bf top I ordered was actually aqueon brand.

Mine went out in 2 months. Not good quality in the slightest. Replaced it and never looked back. Also a 20 gallon filter on a 25 gallon tank is probably too small if you fill it up all the way. You should always go bigger. But that's off topic. If it came with the setup then use it until it poops out and replace it. If you bought, return it. I can't speak for fluval but I know I hated the aqueon.

For a 20 gal aquarium I would use the 100. The 150 is what I use on a 45 gal which is more than enough. These filters are good and have not had any problems with them. The only reason I replaced my filter was for the slight upgrade and I just changed my whole aquarium system.

I am using this in a 55g tank, so yes, bigger is better in this case. First one I got was defective after 6 weeks, so crossing my fingers the replacement will be trouble free
