I think around $200 for 306. You can try to go to their agent at ampat rd. Maybe can get 10% discount.

It comes with two types of heavy duty sponge and some ring media. There are two baskets you need to fill up, I use seachem matrix for one and coral chips for another. There is a used fluval 406 still with guarantee asking for $175 in carousell. If you go check, it is best to see it in operation whether it is quiet.

We all learn la... but maybe it's fate... save me the cost of having to move everything lor.

And back to canister... One thing i din like is when it chokes.
Granted... it shouldn't... but at one point i had PNTs and they were realllll messy eaters.

Or maybe it's simply coz of the high flowrate. I'm a sucker for higher flowrate.
