small ones can come my house

ya, eheim 2028 with some bioclay, cr and 2kgs of new biohome plus. now water turn cloudy, bacteria bloom. ammonia at 0mg/l and 20mg/l nitrate.

setup 1 cannister so many hiccups. think store too long, impeller jam intermittently, small leak at inlet/outlet adapter and o-ring slightly leaking. made me spent the whole afternoon sorting things out now finally up and running
