The BEST CANISTER FILTER Tips I've EVER HEARD!

A virtual Master Class on Canister Filter set up. Experts and beginner canister filter users will get something out of the tips in this video. Don't miss the key bonus tips at the end. They are vital. I hope you enjoy this video. It's essentially everything I've picked up over the years on how to set up a canister filter to get the best (quiet and strong) filter performance. Some of the tips are all me but many were borrowed from my favorite fish keepers over the years. Do you have a tip or suggestion for canister filter users? Share it in the comments below!
