THANK YOU for this video! I have a SunSun HW 303B and it's pretty much impossible to find any vids on this series of the SunSun. Your video is a GREAT help to me for stacking my SunSun which isn't really covered in the manual. Thank you, Gerard! You've earned yourself another subscriber!
Hey Gerard, Thankyou for this video,very infomative,i have bought the same Ciano 60 aquarium and keeping Goldfish in them for the first time. Just a question ,can we use two different cartridges toghether in the tank as there are 4 slots in it. As in can i use the algae cartridge and the water clear cartridge toghether in the filter provided.
Bonjour j'ai un filtre ciano CFBIO 250 Quelqu'un peut-il me dire comment il s'ouvre pour le nettoyage Je n'arrive vraiment pas à déclisper le bas du panneau arrière Merci à tous
@@gerardlubid9623 I did turned it off, but it still kinda sucks some of the small flakes in....not as much tho, so is there any solution for that. Or do I have to just turn off the whole filter everytime I feed them?
Hi Gerard. How to reduce the water flow? I have this kind of filtration and it looks like my swordtail fish didn’t like it due to hi flow. I’m planning to use sponge filter, would you suggest that?
@@gerardlubid9623 I have small 15gallons tank, but why this tank was built with that filtration when we bought it as pack, strange.. i have a pair of swordtail and 7pcs neon tetra on this tank with aquatic plants. I’m thinking now to change it to sponge filters 🤔
Thank you. Excellent video and well explained. Do you know if the pet shop you mentioned supplies spare parts of the sunsun 303B. I needed to replace my cover.
Except that water conditioner doesn’t ONLY remove chlorine, it removes heavy metals and creates a good environment for the fish. Chlorine shouldn’t be your only worry.
@@gerardlubid9623 ah ok sir. Kaya lang wala kse flow control itong sunsun 303, bka pede ko nlng gamitan ng quick connector valve/flow controller para macontrol ang flow
Hi Gerard, great videos. I’m a complete beginner to aquariums, and was looking for a tank to hold 2 goldfish and 1 cleaner fish. The ciano 60 is on my radar, however looking at the size of the bio filter in your video, I have to agree with your view that it’s too big. For a beginner with my needs, would you recommend buying the Ciano 60 and replacing the filter with the SOBO you have? Or buying a plain tank and picking up the light/filter separately? Looking at around 60L capacity.
The Ciano tank is good as a beginner tank but the internal filter that comes with it is not good for me. There are better alternative internal filters that will not take much space in the tank and easier to maintain/clean like the Sobo I used.
@@gerardlubid9623 thanks for the advice. I’m based in the UAE as well. Would the SOBO filter you have, work well for goldfish? Also, would you recommend adding an air stone?
@@merwynd9044, if there is already sufficient water agitation or in other words if the filter outlet is already creating enough movement or waves on the surface of water then no need to add airstone.
Just buy a bottle of seachem safe. It lasts FOREVER. You barely have to use any especially for smaller tanks, I just get the tip of my pinky wet and dip it in the powder, and then dip that in my bucket of water. I’ve had the same bottle for years
I TRIED TAP WATER FOR MY AQUARIUM .ALL MY ANUBIAS AND JAVA FERN MELTED IN LESS THAN A MONTH .I LET IT SIT FOR 24 HOURS ,BUT IT WAS NOT ENOUGH.RAIN WATER ALSO DESINTEGRATE MY FERNS .NEXT STEP WILL BE DRINKING WATER .LAST CHANCE .I HAVE LOST HOUNDREDS OF DOLLARS IN PLANTS.
Hi Gerard, I have a 70L tank with CFBio150 filter. I am planning on having a well-planted tank with fish and snails and hopefully some other little critters. Looking to have as close to a self-sustaining tank as possible (minimum water changes, etc.). I have a large airstone for water agitation and oxygenation. Do you think I should just soup up my CFBIO150 or replace it? The size is a bit of a problem but from what I understand, internal filters are not so good for large tanks? What do you think?
What kind of fish tank do you have? If possible for your tank, I suggest using an external filter instead. Easier to maintain and it will free up more space in your tank.
@@gerardlubid9623 Freshwater tank, currently has one pleco (I will surrender to fish shop when it gets too big, right now it is small). Do you recommend any particular external filter?
