I have recently purchased a second hand fluval 405. Meaning I can stash the powerhead away for a rainy day and clean up the look of my tank:). I was just going to get a eheim compact but this came up and was cheaper and gives me extra filtration too. Now I still have the juwel internal in and...

How I understood it (no expert at all) is they produce o2 during photo period and co2 during lights out so I would I though with little surface agitation gas exchange the majority of o2 the plants consume is used as it is produced as the tank is being injected with co2. So if the plant produced...

Don't you have to be careful about the plants producing co2 in an already co2 saturated tank with minimal surface agitation/gas exchange?

I recently purchased one of these second hand and don't know if I am being dumb but is there a knack to getting the pipe tap to click into place in the filter head? I push the pipes into place as far as they go then try and push the silver tap down to lock them in place but it always pops back...

Do you think the 405 will produce enough flow to give a decent output with a 3ft spray bar? The pipes are quite big on the 405 aren't they?

I was looking into a eheim compact 3000 to run a spray bar along the back of my tank as my crystiprofi e700 doesn't pack enough punch to have one more than 30cm. I have seen one cheap but I have also seen some fluval 405s going cheap. I know they are only 1500lph but would that produce a...

this is exactly the sort of thing I'm after but it says maximum height 70cm. Does that mean 70cm total or 70cm into pump then x cm out of pump?

Can anyone recommend a small water pump so I don't have to keep on lifting 25l of water at a time and trying (and failing) to pour it in as carefully as possible needs to be one with inlet and outlet as a pose to some of the submersible ones which draw water in through the body of the pump...

Tried that but still could get no flow. Going to see if I can fix impeller place then see if that works. If not guess I will try a new power head

Yeh cleaned that too

I am trying to fix it in place so it works till a new one can arrive :s

I have cleaned it out only thing I have seen is the impeller moves up and down a lot like bouncing almost. I am wondering if that's the problem? I can't really move the rest of the filter works as fixed in place with removable power head media and heater

I have had to pinch the mother in laws Aquael hexagonal tank which was gathering dust for an emergency. Anyone know if there is a certain method to get filter running properly there is a power head which drawers water up from left and from what I can gather just pushes it along to right where it...

Could you not make your own reactor? That way you can go plumbers merchant and get whatever couplings fit your pipe work

Think so

Hey. In the end I just subscribed to pfk an got a crystiprofi e700 made by jbl. It doesn't have enough flow for me to remove my internal right now but it does enable me to dose my co2 inline and increase my flow reducing dead spots etc. plus I get the mag every month without forgetting to go wh...

Yarp that's the kitty

Does anyone know of a ready made outlet set will fit the outlet of juwel internal aquariums? I know juwel don't make one but wondered if the fluval range for example fits

Well I had decided but now am unsure arrgghhhhhhh I was going to go the aps1000ef+ as aps filters come with absolutely everything even a uv lamp and was only £60. I wanted the 2000 but I don't have the room. But have now seen a 406 would fit but it's twice the price for just the filter as I...

I have decided now anyway. I am going for a all pond solutions 1000ef+ the one with the uv light. It seems very good value for money. I would of gone bigger but I can't fit any bigger in my cabinet or next to it

Ah cool thanks! Best I get posting!;)

Hi all, I couldn't find a for sale/swap page so thought I would put it here. I am looking for a used external filter. I have been looking at the fluval 05 and 06 range but am open to other options. I am looking for anything that caters for over 200l tanks minimum and is pretty quiet. It will be...
