Wow, this is really great information. I will definitely check into these options and research some more. Thanks so much, you guys are awesome!

Thanks for your reply. After viewing some informational videos I have thought about running a sponge filter as well. It would be quiet but not sure if one would be efficient enough or if I would need two. The HOB I have now does make kind of a buzzing/humming sound but is probably normal. As I am learning more and more about this a submersible pump is probably not the best option.

Thank you, I will check it out!

Hi, I’m new to the hobby and could really use some direction. I am a little lost on which water pump would be best for my 20 gallon high tank. I currently have an Aqueon Quietflow that just isn’t doing that good of a job, and it is louder than I expected. I added a second pump I had for a prior 10gal and it helps a lot but I need to upgrade. I’ve done some research and am considering a submergible pump. I’d love to hear your thoughts or recommendations on types of pumps, brands, wattage etc. Thanks

Ok, thanks for the advice.

Hi, I’m dealing with an Ick infestation and ordered the Ick-X, it won’t come for a couple of days. I turned up the heat. I have Top Fin Ick medicine from Petsmart on hand and dosed with it yesterday. Does anyone know if it is safe to change to the ick x medication when I get it since I started with the other one first?
