Question ZooMed 501 filter?
I've heard a lot about the ZooMed 501 canister filter, has anyone tried it out? Does it work well? I'm considering it for my 20 gallon tank for C. Orientalis and would like any feedback from anyone who has used it.

Thanks.

How tall is your 20 gallon tank?

If you do a search for "zoomed" you'll find some old discussions of this filter.

You can browse through this thread: Filter Systems

I find the filter to work very well in ten gallon tanks and pretty well in a standard 20 gallon. Anything above that needs a different filtration system. If your 20 galon has tall sides you may consider getting the filter hanger so the hoses can reach the water. Good luck with it!!
