Aquarium Advice FINatic
I have an Eheim 2215 (I think) that has been set up on my 50gal tank for about 3 or 4 months. When we first set it up, it was so fast and had such good water pressure - now it's slowed down to about half of its former speed; the current in my tank is much less.
I have cleaned the filter media every month, replaced the filter wool completely a couple of times, taken out the impeller and cleaned that... but it's still slow. What's going on?
For a few weeks I had my DIY CO2 running through it (tube from the CO2 went into the intake for the filter), and am worried I could have damaged something with the bubbles that would have been in there... how can I check this? If this is the case, is there a part I can buy to fix this?
Thanks for your help!
