Aquarium Advice FINatic
I am setting up a new tank, and i have had a few different filters (hang on, internal and canisters) in the past 2 years on different tanks. All made some noise to a certain degree, except internals. Nearly all internal brands were silent. But most eBay brand canisters and even an aquaclear hang on made some noise. Especially the eBay canistsrs. Not touching them again. But I have not used an Eheim canister in around 20 years. So I forgot what they were like to use.
Because I am obsessed with filters and clean water, and also cause I have read great reviews on Eheim, I bought an Eheim Classic 2217 and tried it out in basic tap water in the sink to see how it runs.
I could not believe my ears when I turned it on, saw water coming out of the outlet (nice strong flow too, with media inside canister) but could not hear a single noise. It was almost like magic! I dont even remember any vibration noise or anything. I had to check if it was plugged in
This thing is unbelievable.
I think im gonna get rid of all filters and convert to eheim classics in all my tanks. Even on small tanks. The saying is true with you get what you pay for.
I have not tried fluval canisters yet though. They are the only mainstream canister I have not tried yet. I may buy one for fun to try.
But for the moment, Eheim rocks! Dont know how anything can top this.
