Eheim Canister Filter Comparison

[xconnect.]

I fill half with about one box so you will need about two boxes of 1litre to fill it. Any excess you can always sell or keep for future use

What about the Mr. Aqua Ceramic Rings? Read somewhere on another forum that in terms of amount of bacteria that it can house per unit size, it's almost as close to BioHome Plus as possible?

Well for me i will always have the mentality that is if this item is expensive is has got to be good so yeah

Mr Aqua ceramic rings and seachem matrix follow by eheim substrat pro.

I have a mixture of Seachem matrix and Eheim substrate pro in my filter. I bought a small box of Mr Aqua which is used in my other filters. Works well so far.

When do we use the different sizes? For BioHome+ it's easy: only one size. But for media brands with different size, I know not how to choose.

There are 2 sizes for Biohome Plus... (maybe 3 sizes)...

I must have missed it (them) in the LFS then.

[ralliart12]

Just to double-check: the intake pipe (hard plastic) of the 2224 is the same size as that of the 2211 right? If I'm not wrong, they are exactly the same part no. (7272210) right? I'm looking for steel mesh filter guards for 2 of my filters so wish to double check the size.

Wa so detailed like this need go Qian hU see the parts list to comfirm your This enquiry XD

[mincedmeat]

Isn't there a size to this? 12/16 or something? Or I might be on the wrong frequency

Yah, there's also this measurement, but I'm not too sure about the exact measurements of the (intake) pipes used by either model, so just double-checking here.

I'm also an Eheim fan and currently using 3 filters as my signature says.
I like the solid build quality and silent reliable operation and availability of ample spare parts.
Even though many people prefer 'classic' range, they use high wattage and doesn't come with taps.
Over the time, Eheim improved the design of Classics with Pro, Pro 2 and Pro3. Looking at them I can see they tried to give pre-filtering capability to filter in a better way thus making it easy to clean prefilter. Also high quality media like 'bio mech pro' and 'mech pro' comes only with high end Pro x series models and buying them separately is very costly. And they reduced the power consumption greatly but supports high flow rates. Even they made priming easy. Even though people doesn't use this feature it is quite handy in a tightly packed aquarium.
Media wise 'substrat pro' is great with 450sq.m of area and sphere shape to help good flow through. Among others 'biohome' and 'Seachem Matrix' is top of the class media and I have using them too.
