水草情迷

Asking for my friend who want to set up a 60(L)X30(W)X45cm(H) tank (81L water)

He may / may not use UV (9Watts) and water chiller (CL280), which filter is better Tetra EX90 (750L/H) or EX120 (1250L/H)

P.S. he will use ADA lily in/out pipe, please also consider the outflow.

Thank you for helping!

ex120 for sure if the filtrate mainly are "s" size bio-ring.

If your friend will use the filter to push both UV & chiller, I think EX120 should be the right choice. (If Tetra has the right outflow rate)

I use ADA 60 x 30 x 36 tank (60L) + Lily in/out + 9W UV + CL280, I am now using Ehiem 2028 (1050L), I think the outflow after passing UV & chiller is only half.

If no UV, no chiller, EX90 should be enough. EX 120 is even better but lily out pipe can make the tank very "windy"

thank you very much for both!

BTW, TigerM, I am using exactly the same equipment as you are!

Are you using ADA 604 FL lights?

2 x EX90，
one for cooler, one for UV lamp ~

Oh, if 2 filters are allowed, then the above would be the best solution wor, but remember the filtrate,which in the ex90 connected to chiller, would not be so compact.

i'm using EX90 to push CL300,
it's fully installed PH bio ring ( m & s size ),
water flow is strong enough in 28"x14"x12" tank,
i set the cooler in 22 度 & the tank is arround 24 度

He wants to use only 1 filter, he decided to go for EX90 for the UV, and if he get a water chiller later, he will add another filter.

He ask me to thank you all of you. Thank you.

TigerM: I am using ADA HQI, only becos of its look!
