Sizing of cannister filter for 2ft cube tank

[sammajor]

Dear bros,

Currently running on eheim 2227 connecting to a external reactor and chiller on my 2ft cube planted tank. I am thinking to change to pro 3 either 2073 (flow rate - 1050 l/h) or 2075 (flow rate - 1250l/h). Which one is more suitable. Can anyone advise?

Get the higher flow rate one (2075). Reason is once the plants are in there water circulation slows down considerably. Add that to the fact that filters slow down over time and you have a compelling reason to choose the 2075.

I am also thinking of taking the 2075. Thks for the advise
