this is SO OLD like 5 yrs ago lol but i didnt have any filter in that tank and just a heater i think but because of this they all died :( (this was when i first got interested in fish)
Good luck with the shrimp raising venture. As for an uggiff, we under gravel filter users are a minority.
My filter is a Zoo Med 501 Canister filter. It has some odd filter media in the bottom. You can see it thru the side.
Another additional question, i'm planning to use a 3-layer 5ft overhead filter and a small eheim canister filter. is my plan ok? or do you suggest other filter?

Sorry, I think I mentioned the power filter in my first post, but not how strong it was. It is not an under gravel filter. I've calmed it down a lot since I first put him in. I will post a photo...
Maybe one of our members has experience with those specific filters. As a general rule, you should never thoroughly clean the filter media. For now, you may want to keep it all wet and simply transfer...
