What Filter For Extra Help

Richard22b · May 31, 2009

In my tank i currently have a Eheim Pro 2.

The pump intake is placed behind my background where there is a 5 inch to 3 inch gap.

Now this space doesnt get great circulation and the water down one end is very still.

I put in a pump to move this water around but i thought i might as well put an internal filter up the other end to filter the water and to circulate.

Im looking for something with a good litre an hour rating but also low on power consumption 5-10.

My current ideas were:
Eheim 2212
Fluval U4
Aquael Internal Filter 1000

Hi
Any of the filters you mentioned would be ok although it maybe worth trying to get hold of an older fluval + as I would imagine they are quite cheap now they have been replaced. people also seem to rate them higher. You could also leave the media out to increase the flow, however it maybe cheaper to just get a powerhead as they have a higher turnover.
