Fluval vs Eheim?

FYI, I have a brand new Eheim 2213 in the classifieds:

Try a Rena XP2

Because of the cost, I would't recommend Eheim for smaller tanks or people just getting into the hobby.


Once you start dealing with 100+gal tanks, the cost of an Eheim is not so out of whack when you factor in the costs of maintaining such a large tank.


Just my 2 cents.

The media baskets also cut down on the flow and the gph of the filter.

How???, it's the media that reduces the flow!

I know they are pricey, but in the long run they are worth it. Eheims that is. I'm running a 2026, 2028, and two large classic 2250's.
