That sucks that you had problems with your fx5 the guy we got our setup from had a spare fx motor on hand in case it failed. From my little browsing it looks like Carl isn’t a big fan of the fx canisters. Better options that are more efficient and have far more filter capacity. What bio media do you run? For my setup we went with Seachem pond matrix.

Yes and Carl is right. I got the FX5 because I got a deal on it when I purchased the tank. When mine was running, I had Matrix, biomax ceramic rings and cut up chunks of Matala Filter media...
I also normally ran a bag of Purigen as well...

Do agree that LED would be best long term. And since your not growing plants, the spread would be fine front to back.
