I am currently using a dual Bio wheel filtration unit on a freshwater tank (35x17x17). Do you think a pump filtration unit would be better?

We’re not sure what you mean by a pump filtratioon unit, but we think you mean a canister filter. The dimensions of your tank (inside dimensions most likely), indicate it is a 50 gallon aquarium. That size aquarium is better suited for canister filtration but we would caution you to alos continue using your power filter for a while after hooking up a canister filter. Top • Can a water heater that got waterlogged be dried out and used again No! You must replace the heater. Top • I have a 100 gallon saltwater aquarium with a wet dry filter, UV sterilizer and flourecent lights. Sometimes I get an electrical shock when I put my hand in the water. Should I have some sort of a ground strap? Using a titanium ground probe is an absolute safety neccessity for ALL saltwater aquariums. Of all the deaths attributed to the aquarium hobby, almost all are due to elctrocution. A ground probe will help prevent this from happening. The use of a Ground Fault Interruption electrical outlet is the surefire
