    Eheim Pro 3 - worst Eheim ever?

    Never had an eheim filter but always wanted to get a pro3 thermo 1200xl after hearing they are the boss .... maybe not after reading this !
  2. Brian Murphy

    Has anyone bought a filter from www.bitiba.co.uk

    £341 for an Eheim pro 3 thermo 1200xl on it compared to £549 on the zooplus.co.uk site !! Crazy difference o_O

    Product Review JBL CristalProfi e1500 Review (Picture Heavy)

    That would be great as I think flow is more important than anything else in a filter and some I've tried are lacking even though they claim high turnover per hour

    Flow question

    What filters do you run in your 6ft Clive?
  12. Brian Murphy

    2 new filters to aid flow and circulation, help me decide between....

    I might order that pipe from Rigid pipe per metre (16mm) in Aquatics - Plumbing - Rigid pipe and Fittings - Pipes and Clips and just space the holes a little further apart, say every other other hole. I could then use the stoppers that came in the old spaybars.

    2 new filters to aid flow and circulation, help me decide between....

    I've got a Rio400 (5ft) so got a bit extra to go. Im thinking now of getting 2 different lengths of pipe that will fit each hose connection and drilling my own holes in it further apart and meeting in the middle with stoppers on the ends. I have a UP inline diffuser attached to the outlet of...

    Best filter options for 172l tank?

    I asked aquaessentials would 18mm internal diameter work ok with 17mm lily pipes and they said yes it would. It shows that its £179 on zooplus not euro

    Best filter options for 172l tank?

    Thanks, I have 2 allponds in my bigger 450l tank, a 2000 and a 1400 and yes the flow does drop. So its the jbl which operates 1400l/h, 12 litres filter volume and 20 watt power - £146.20 OR Eheim 2075 pro 3 which operates 1250l/h, 6.5 litres filter volume and 16 watt power - £179.00...

    Best filter options for 172l tank?

    I've been looking around for the best and cheapest option of filter for the new tank I'm getting made which will be 96x40x40/45 (haven't decided height yet) so thats approx 172l minus displacement from substrate etc. Obviously I would love to achieve the 10x flow rate but I am on a budget as...

    All pond filter

    If you are going for the allponds go for the 1400 as it wont be near what it says on the tin as you loose alot of flow

    Allpondsolutions 1400ef+

    The flow on my 1400 is atrocious and really want to change to a more powerful filter. My 2000 isn't too bad but probably what I would want from my 1400

    Put it in a hot bath for a minute or so, and/or put something straight like a rod of some sort through it and leave to set straight.

    Best Filter for 450l planted tank?

    My UP inline atomizer arrived today from singapore so I will swap the mixer/reactor for that and take out the thinner hosing so will be interesting to see the flow difference. My reg is sitting at 2 so should be enough for the UP.

    Best Filter for 450l planted tank?

    At present I use 2 Allponds external filters ..... a 1400l/h +uv (inline mixer/reactor connected with dreadful flow loss) and a 2000l/h. I need better flow, ideally I want the x10 rule for my high-tech planted tank. I have seen an Eheim professionel 3 1200xl (new) for £250 but it is only rated...

    I currently have a Juwel Rio 400 (400-450l) and have an Allponds 1400L/H +UV and Im in the process of connecting a sodastream Co2 diffuser/reactor like the one below to it. I need more flow and water movement in my tank so I want to get a new 2nd external filter but on the cheap. I can't...
