I am currently running an aquaclear 300, whisper and a magnum on my 75 gal african cichlid tank... i need to know if i can take off the aquaclear and put it on my saltwater nano... anyone have any idea what i can do?

just use new inserts if you plan to use media....and maybe wipe the filter parts down with baking soda to clean em and remove any fw fish residuals like meds or ...

well you could use the aq300 to circulate water, to hold carbon if needed, hide heater, or to make a fuge.

thats what i am doing... making a fuge.. is a 300 big enuff for a 7gall? and my orignal question was if a freshwater filter would harm a saltwater tank... i already cleaned it with baking soda and as i type i am splitting the compartments with plexi...

yeah almost everyone who turns a aq into a fuge uses a 300, i used a 500 gave me more room to grow macro.
