Hi,
i have just setup a 500ltr tank with 2 x 1200ltr cannister. One of them is pumping water out fine but the other 1 has water slowly coming out of it because of the pipes been bent. This is due to the pipes going thru the hood and when it opens it bends. Is this gonig to be a issue if i have discus in the tank. I hope there is enough flitration.

u really need to fix it, it would be putting a lot of strain on ur filter too, if it's just clear hose u can get 45deg bends or 90 deg ones from just about any local hardware or lfs...
uv'e got 2 filters may as well use them both properly :)

good thinking i wouldnt of thought of that. Thanks for your advice and help. I will go into Mitre 10 tomoz and get a 90 bend.
