I’m looking for people’s opinions on a good filter, I want to have an aquarium co-op sponge filter. It is a very heavily aquarium with floating plants, snails, and large amounts of carpeting and background plants like valisnera. The fish don’t have a huge bio load, only a small/medium school of neon tetras, along with a single angelfish. But I have been told that sponge filters are useless by some people, and heralded as a godsend by others. I don’t know much, would love opinions on this.
