for fries tank - bio foam

for adult tank - *varies on the size of the tank.
+if tank is 1 ft only, suggest using biofoam filter.
+if tank is above 1 ft can try mini power filters.

show tank - *also varies on size of tank.
+same as above.

i do have a guide to tweaking your mini power filters into a biological filter. will post the guide later on

Yea, sponge filters are generally the best. However, for adult tank, there are many options depending on the size of your tank, if it is a planted tank, your preference, time and money!!!

My guppies tank use sponge filter. Better u know. becuz guppies lurved this type of environment. Sponge filter comes in many sizes. Make sure the right one for ur tank. If ur not interested in breeding guppies, well, a hang on tank will suffice. also they come in many sizes. Make sure the right one for ur guppy tank.
