What is your thoughts on the Aquaclear 110. Is that a good filter and would that work good for my 55 gal cichlid tank with a big bio load. Thanks

how many liters or gallons per hour?

500 GPH. One would work great for a 55 gallon tank. We use the AC 110 with a Rena XP2 for a 75 gallon tank and it's an excellent product.

I have:
2 AC110s on my 75G,
1 AC110 and Rena XP4 on my 90G and
2 AC70s on my 40G.
I really like them.

Actually, for a long time I ran 2 AC110s on my 90G (no canister) and they did great.
But the rainbows are big now and eat like pigs, so...

Don't be afraid to add a second AC110 to your 55G if you have large fish or your tank is heavily stocked.
You can alternate cleaning them (1 every 2 wks) and lessen the chance of messing up your bio.

Thanks I'll go with the AC110 and run my whisper 40 to that should do the trick.

Bad Wolf

it should be perfect.

Hello! The Aqua Clear (AC) 110 will be just fine for your 55g. I have them also. When it comes to filtration you want your gallons per hour (gph) to be 8 to 10 x the tank volume so you'll be fine
