Fluval 125 Cabinet

[klay]

Hi,
Does anyone know the internal size of the old type Fluval 125 cabinet ?
I need to whack an external filter in and judging by the online pics it looks like a tight squeeze.
Thanks

I have the Fluval Roma cabinet (the one with two doors either side of a center strip, see pic) and have got an Eheim Pro 3 2073 filter in the right hand side of it. If you google this filter and get the dimensions it should give you an idea because it only just fits (about 5-10cm clearance), height wise its fine though.

EDIT: I have just looked on Eheim.de and the dimensions are, in millimeteres HxWxD 398x238x244

Hope that helps
Mike

Thanks for reply Mike but it's a different cabinet. It's this one

£150 as opposed to £210 with the cabinet in your pic.
I've just ordered a JBL Cristal Profi e1500 for £90 inc p+p from zooplus and their service dept. said dimensions are 200 (L), 235 (W), 460 (H).

Cheers, Paul

i have a fluval 305 under my roma 125 and i could probably fit something twice as big in!

Yep I had an eheim 2217 under that cabinet, loads of room left over.

It's a smaller cabinet than the one Oswoldy has shown but after getting the dimensions of JBL 1500, I think there will still be enough room. I just expected the filter to bigger ! Also, I cant believe I can save £60 on a tank and cabinet without something going wrong.

Thanks for replies guys, Paul
