hard to say their are so many possibilities. in a 45 gallon you could do livebearers tetras cory cats, rainbows, dwarf cichlids. 75 gallon you could do angels, cichlids, anycomunity setup. what are you interested in? it would be easier to suggest stuff if I had a starting point.

Aquariums With Ty lol soo sorry I was not clear. I was asking what model cascade canister filter you would recommend for a 45 gallon and a 75 gallon tank. 😂. I ended up getting the 700 for the 45 and the 1000 for the 75
@Withtychannel

oh in that case that's easy... I recommend getting 2 times what is rated for your aquarium so if you have a 45 get a filter rated for a 90. really over filtering your aquarium by any number is beneficial there are ways to enhance the filtration of your tank no mater what you buy

@@Withtychannel One issue I had in the beginning as well as a common issue I read others have is that the water lines that come with this filter are just too short for relocating the pump, or they are too short for having water enter and exit at far ends to each other. The way around this issue is to splice the water lines with plastic 1/2" inch plastic water pipes. Another issue I had and did not know about is that if the Cascade water lines have to make a sharp bend they kinda kink and really cut down on the amount of water that get though them.

I use O/S Cascade 300 hang on back on A 90 Gal it keeps it clear , but I’m not satisfied with the bottom cleaning. I have 2 Oscars .(M/F) Breeder pair . And what I mean about bottom cleaning is they seem to have there own rest rooms at either end of Aquarium. And I don’t get enough movement at bottom level to keep it clean . I’ve been at this for 37 yrs and as the aquarium is in my den and retired so am I . So I notice it more . Wonder if a cascade canister could intake low . And exhaust low to move the water on lower tank , and let the cascade 300’s (2) do the rest . Hoping community here has advice . Thanks William

He had the 5 in loer level but i dont go down there .. he had electric yellow cichlids in it but i moved them upstairs into the 20 gallon and i didnt know how often youneed to clean small tanks n they died so im starting all over the twosilver dollars in the 55 will get along with cichlids or oscars if i go that rout .

Aquariums With Ty it’s 59 inches in diameter and 12 inches high..it’s filled about an inch to the top..it’s a 100 gallon size pool...I was told by someone at Cascade(I’m not trying to second guess you..I appreciate the response)..that : “If the flow control valves are not below the waterline, it could keep the filter from cycling water”. I have an old canister filter I found on the street,connected to an underwater pump,but after I partially flooded my living room after it suddenly started leaking, I put it above the pool in a basin with a tube in the side so if it ever leaks again it will just go back in the pool. The problem is it’s really noisy because the water is pumping upwards and now the outgoing hose is filled with air and just makes it very bubbly and loud..on the floor it was a solid stream of water and that made it super quiet. I’m willing to chance a leak on the Cascade if it would pump efficiently at floor level..the Cascade rep also said she keeps hers in a high sided litter box. Thanks again for the help. I may order one,test it without their media in it..and return it if it just doesn’t pump well at that level.

Ya so aquarium filters clean your water a couple different ways 1 the break down ammonia by providing surface area for bacteria to grow on. The bacteria eats the ammonia and the end result is nitrates. Which u then waterchange out(I do once a week). The other way they clean the water is by polishing the water catching the little particles and you change out or clean those pads as needed. Hope this helps let me know if there is something I wasn’t clear on.
