sorry Doug Been away from the pc, had a surprise as I had wrigglers in my main tank when doing my water change tonight...

lost the ebay link but found the filter here..

http://www.almeria-aquatics.eu/index.php?page=shop.product_details&product_id=30&flypage=flypage.tpl&pop=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=30

I do hope the link works.

I have a aquarist friend who breeds fish and he's been selling aquatronix internal power filters on ebay for a while.
After chatting to him tonight he asked me if I would swap a new Aquatronix IPF-003 for a few of my spare ancistrus.

As I have been unable to find much about them I said I would think about it and let him know.

I was thinking of setting the Aquatronix IPF003 up in my Juwel Rekord 80 which already as a Fluval Plus 4 filter inside the aquarium.
Once the aquatronix filter is cycled I was going to remove it and instal it into another bristlenose grow out tank.

I was wondering if you one of you would check out the filter and give me your thoughts on it.

I am assured it is good for fry and grow out tanks as the flitration flow is adjustable and the intake is protected.

Will find out shortly...

thank you in advance..
