I hate canister...They become filthy and cumbersome to clean.
I am a big fan of Wet/DRY sump filtration. I can replace filter pads without stopping the flow Found a FX5 for $150 690297

Wet Dry and Sumps are the way to go! I've had my doubts, but Man was I wrong. Found a FX5 for $150 690297

that's a good deal, and they can easly be moded. can use lava rock and take out the pads... also put a sponde over the intake to keep debree out.

Well I got both.
On my 180 I have a Wet dry and a FX5.
&
On the 210 I have two FX5's.

In my opinion the FX5's are easy to clean. They might take a few more minuts to wash out than it takes to change the pad in a wet dry but the wet dry needs the pad changed much more frequently than the fx5 needs to be serviced. I was verry un-happy with the water clarity in my 180 untill I added the FX5. The wet dry just did not give me the results I was looking for.

In the end its just personal prefrence. No matter what - $150 is a good price on the filter

Of my 44 tanks , 10 are on HOB or Canisters . the other 34 are on Wet/dry sump systems. I have a FX5 sitting out in the garage collecting dust . I used to use it to do gravel cleaning duties B-4 I got a Python ! Both types have their pros and cons , I just prefer the sumps .
