powerhead with canister filter.

If the head hight is greater than that specified for the 2213 and you want to put a pump inline to increse it, dont make it any more than the rcomended flow rate of the filter so the filter media can do its job and your not stressing the impella.
 
My belief is the powerheads need to be submersed for proper cooling of the encased motor.
