Need Help With Eheim Filter

[hhawkins510]

somebody recently gave me a Eheim professional II canister filter for my 55 gallon tank i am setting up for cichlids. i believe the type is 2128. i only have the canister itself, and i have looked at a ton of websites and cant seem to find something that tells me exactly what parts i need to order to go with it, and i dont want to order more then i need. any help would be GREATLY appreciated

2118 instructions

this should help you find out.

you will need 16/22mm tubing. the length depends on how you set it up. and the inlet and out let system (Eheim installation sets, one and two.) apart from that, you will need media. for this filter thats (and i suggest, despite cost, you get Eheim media) 2L Ehfimech 4L Ehfisubstrat pro. and as set of filter pads 1xblue 1xwhite. the media can be bought in kits.

i dint think you are supposed to put up Ebay adds. rulers say no commercial, (the reason id did not post any) links. and the fact that there is no 2118 media is good, as the OP was looking for 2128. its a typo in the link, from me.

ah right i see.

i've seen others post ebay links so i didnt think it mattered, especially as no-one here sells any of the linked items?
