    I read the article you sent me. Thanks so much. Still, I am very confused ! I have a box filter now, with the sponge, charcoal & ammonia chips. The water is crystal clear. The water tests perfectly & the 2 discus are doing very well. Yet I hear of these other filters that are better & how to clean, how often to clean, etc. Like I said, I am very confused. I'll have to do some reading. DISCUS LOVERS HELP ME ! IN TERMS I CAN UNDERSTAND !
    Thanks again !
