    Dear all,
    May I ask if it is even possible to connect 2 Eheim 2217 to a Hailea 300A. I sought of figure that since a single Eheim 2217's flow rate is only at 1000lph and the recommended flow is between 1000 to 24000 lph for the chiller would it be good to connect two filters to the chiller. This setup is only based for one tank, am not splitting the chiller to work for 2 tanks so any bros out there could you kindly give me an advise on this. Thanks alot.

    It depends on what sized tank you are going to use the chiller for. Try running it with just a 2217 and see the flow after installing the chiller to see if it's sufficient.
    If you were to run the tank using two filters, do remember to connect them in parallel to increase flowrate. Connecting them in series will increase Hmax instead.
