Hi!
I'm in the process of cycling a 55 gallon tank for 2 axys and hope to grow some floating plants to encourage breeding. I'm currently using a Marineland Penguin 100 for filtration, but w/o modification I am forced to hang it from the side of the tank. In order for it to work properly, the tank has to be filled almost to capacity- not ideal for floating plants and more water volume than the filter is rated for. Anybody have any idea how I can modify the filter or tank to place the filter inside so I can lower the water level without creating an electric shock hazard?
