Hi, everyone,
I'm new to this forum, but not new to fishkeeping or discus. (There are currently 7 tanks running in our house.)
On our current 65-gallon discus tank we have a Fluval 404, plus a Merlin running off one powerhead on an undergravel uplift tube, and a uv running the same way off the other end of the tank. We hate the appearance of the white tubing in the tank, plus all of the other visible equipment.
We are about to set up a 125-gallon tank for more discus, and are seriously contemplating using the Lifegard system for filtration, using their sand filter and the uv unit along with the mechanical and chemical filtering modules and a heater module. We like the idea of everything set up in sequence and no equipment inside the tank. Has anyone had experience with the Lifegard system, and if so, are/were you happy or unhappy with it?
Thanks,
Lisa
