Recommend on purchase canister filter

[Danieltang]

Hi,

Looking for a canister filter. Can anybody recommend?

Size of my tank is 4 feet. Currently using a mount-top filtering but the water current is too high and could not setup the rain tree.

In my mind looking at atman filter & jebao filter. Are these 2 filters consume lot of power. :

If you are choosing between Atman and Jebao, go for the Atman. I personally would prefer Eheim. Lights or chillers are going to consume far more electricity than your canister filter.

AMK ave 10. $70 for Ehiem 2213 canister filter.

I saw it at $108 at qian hu.

steal right?

[tawauboy]

the power consumption figures could be around 20-30 watts.
monthly bills will be about $3-4.

That's a steal, I though petmart $80 is damn good price.

I don't think 2213 is good enough for a 4ft tank right?

I hv been using Jebao 915 fer the past 6 mths fer my 4ft planted. so far no complaints. as compared to Atman, same price with Jebao will not give you primer and also at lower flow rate.
