Fx-5

First topic message reminder :

I am now happy to say that after about of month of research and asking around that i have bought my 1st ever canister filter. THE FLUVAL FX-5. I saw it being sold on Amazon for $229 brand new and with free shipping. i had to jump on that price. i will be placing it on my 180 gal. with 2 Emperor 400's. So for all my other FX-5 Lovers, tell me what are the best media to place in the baskets???
