Out Door Pond Filters For Large Home Tanks

That's how Henry filtered his koi tubs in the store - he used the BioFalls from his pond equipment. I've seen everything from large pond canisters to big sand filters used for pools on indoor aquaria.

When doing a large tank (with lots of large fish, I'm assuming), I aim for the most volume for biomedia (sumps are great for this); after that, my next priority is how it will fit with my set up - does the stand/cabinet have room for a large sump? Will it be too noisy? Too much evaporation? Etc. Finally, what kind of extra equipment will be needed? IE. extra pump, hose/pipe, fittings, etc.

Really, canisters are the easiest - pretty much just plug & play. But, with some other methods, you can get more filtration for lower price - it's all up to you. :)
