Which Eheim External Filter Is This.

[Titchie]

I've just got this with the tank I bought, It runs fine with the fluval 3 plus. But ive looked at it and it has no markings on it. Im new to external's and I didnt get instruction's for it. So I dont know how to replace any media or what model it is should I need parts.
Its 28cm high by 10cm wide

Any ideas and thoughts are very welcome as Im new to a external filter.
Im unsure how to clean it out and also trying to get it running properly, I managed it once when I got it but I think that was luck. It has 4 taps on it to close valves, but how do these work when trying to get it to run again after cleaning.

Many thanks for any help as Im really not sure

2213 I think
To get it running
Open taps ( when connected back to the filter)
Let it fill up by siphon ( should do this on its own when taps open)
Turn it on when filled and give it a shake side to side to help get any air out
That should do the trick
If its empty there will be no siphon so
Make sure all pipes inlet/outlet are connected and under water
Fill filter bottem the green can ( what holds you media) with tank water ( leaving media in as well)
Lid on start it up and give it a shake.
That's how I do mine never had any trouble

Here Vin you going to that show?

the dimensions match up so its not big enough for the tank

If you fill it with bio media thats a hell of a lot extra filtration running in conjunction with another filter though.

I have a 2215 and it's bigger than that, I'd say 2213 classic

the other filter is only a fluval 3 plus

Eheim 2211 suitable for tanks up to 40 USG or 160l , Fluval 3+ suitable for 34 USG or 130l (rough figures). If you use fluval for mainly mechanical filtration and the eheim for mainly biological (one sponge at bottom to stop majority of debris) then you'll be sorted. Or am I wrong?
