HI, Some one use SUPERFISH SLIM LED? Seems water proof and good light temperature.

Thanks for the reply. I think I have to by always 2 lights because my aquarium is 60cm front to back,60 top to bottom, and front 1m. If I look the aquarium set from eheim empiria 330 (same dimensions as mine), they also have 2 lights inside, also with IP68, but arround 200€ each. That's why it...

Hello, What light did you choose? I need help to select some lights that can be fitted inside an aquarium lid, but some not very expensive. For open aquarium have the twinstar, and for other i have cheap one. And is good enough for plants.

Is better don't use it....

HI, all, Can I use twinstar II 900EA in a covered/Lid aquarium? I have this light in open tank, but I intent to buy a new aquarium closed, or buy a new one and build a Lid for it. My question is twinstar able to handle the humidity inside the lid? thank you all. ps: a lot humidity in my home

I have done the same, to many people saying the same, biomaster 850 was my initial preference...

Hello, I'm also not sponsored by any brand. And I like Oase also, I have been in the shop and got it (850) in my hands. Anyway the thread was the noise of Oase 850, I just share my "findings" because I was about to buy it 1 month ago. The propose was comparison of Oase 850 (1500 l/h in theory)...

Hi, You are correct in some points for sure. But eheim professionel 3 have the heating element on the TOP. I my opinion the main cons of the eheim is the pre-filter, and price of the spare parts. But flow and silence... Eheim beats Oase for a long distance. And I was talking about Oase 850 vs...

Hi, Because of this bad received "inputs" from people with oase 850, and because one big local store with a lot experiencie in maintenance that sell's oase and eheim and ADA, simply told me: "if you want the most silent filter with internal heater and high capacity, just go for eheim 1200xlt"...

HI, I have one new eheim pro 31200xlt, when I press "SET" button I feel the "click" it a "mechanical" thing, is not and electronic sound of a "click". You don't fell the "click" at all or you don't fell it? Mine is new, and I don't want it broken right now. How long you have your filter? Regards

HI, I have also a proflora direct 16/22. And 6 months later I figure how to have a good mist, and is just add an extra o-ring on bottom of the atomizer. Before I had big bubbles coming out from outlet flow. Water returning back, mine return a little bit (4cm of air pipe) but after that I have...

Hi, Quick update: Now is filter is more silent after 5 days. Maybe not yet so silent as my old professionel 4 600, but should be almost there. It's a "beast" of a filter :), works fine. ps: in the first hours i have some air coming inside filter because one of the hoses was not correctly...

Thank you for all your sharing. 24h later is more silent than yesterday, is true. But i expect less "humming" than my old professionel 4 and is not, at least yet, let´s see. Maybe eheim mec pro is holding some air, that small tubes. The focus should be do not clog too much the filter to keep the...

Hello, Sorry for camming back, I just received my 2180 and install it yesterday. The flow is really good. About the noise, the other (my old) eheim 2275 was more silent, or maybe is just because I have some air inside filter? In this installation I have new media (eheim mec and mec pro), I will...

Ok, 2180 wins. I was afraid that 2180 was end of life. But most probably not. The aquarium is 300l, the medias I will reuse from old filter. I have some matrix and some neo pure. I have to find something more now, this is bigger. Currently I own professional 4 600, I will update. Thanks

Hi, I will probably buy one thermo filter from eheim, a big one. There is eheim professionel 3 xlt (2180), professionel 5 600t (2178). My question is, what is better? More reliable and silent? The price and flow are similar. For me one inlet or two is irrelevant. Thank you all

I hope so, should be possible return the filter in case we don't like it, or make a "test drive" first... :)

No silence.

HI, I agree is not accurate, but maybe the increase of noise can be trustful.. maybe? increase 9db it's a lot.

This mesure is not accurate, i know, because it depend on phone microphone sensibility. Anyway my room is more silent than yours :p I don't have an OASE 850 I was planning to buy it, my current filter is eheim 2275 (prof 4 600). My room with no filter close to aquarium: 28db With filter, open...

I just ask for clarification to OASE and they said that some initial filters come with an issue, but all are now solved/replaced.

That is a very good impression, now is silent...how long did it take to reduce the noise? Can you mesure it?

I just contact OASE and they recognize that some filters had an issue, allowing air to hose's system. They also said that is already solved. true or not I don't know....

Hi, about the OASE biomaster 850, do you have it? How is the working noise? it is possible to measure it? I leave in calm area all noises make me crazy :P. I have one eheim 2275. For me it will be one of the decisive factor. Maybe using a phone app at 20cm distance from filter. thanks

You are the second person I heard saying biomaster850 is noisy (how many days is working?). Now I'm afraid of buy it. There are more people here with Biomaster 850? People in general report that biomaster 600 is quiet. Can you or some one mesure de decibel at 20cm distance from the filter? we...

Hi, the OASE 850 is noisy? I'm about to buy it, but the noise will be my factor of decision. The other option is EHEIM professionel 5e 600T. Currently I have an eheim 2275, I would like to improve... without noise.

HI, I also have an jbl proflora inline (16/22mm) diffuser, mine release the bubbles too big. How is you diffusion of co2? My diffuser is close top the outlet, just 30cm, I don't think it is very efficient. About you case, yes a have one check valve more, and water return a little bit. we can...

Sorry what you mean with "change IMO"?

Bucephalandras and anubias

Yes I have one, It was not there because was for cleaning... usually turns from dark green to green, is never light green or yellow. and in the morning is never blue. About ferts you think everything is ok? Everything grows like crazy except what I "most want".

Hi, Your tank looks amazing. Congrats Your Buce is what I want to have :) Regards

Hello Nuno, Last time I mesure 2 months ago, was 20ppm of CO2 (I used KH/PH table to get value). CO2 should be enough for buce and anubias in theory they should live well without CO2 injected..... But I will mesure it and see if I need to increase... till 30ppm? Obrigado

In your opinion I should increase Macros... double? or is too much? If someone have more ideas.... :)

My aquarium have 6 months now, I have reused anubias, bucephalandras, ferns, crypt's and ludwigia from a old tank. During the time there a green cover that come black in all slow grow plants and in all rocks and wood. Postostemon, Ludwigia , and ferns are growing well, but anubias and...

I have Seachem Matrix and eheim substrat pro and NEO MEDIA from aquaRio. For me the 3 are good in case of bacteria holding. But in case of durability/ usability I prefer NEO and Matrix, because eheim is allways releasing some small particles sand, it will be my last option. But the 3 are very...

Hello, I mean magnesium (Mg). Now I research for Mn, is different sorry I didn't know about the importance of this. Looking for rotala butterfly the result of weekly dose (40ml/w) is 0.0533ppm/week. I don't have test for this, the value 0.0533/w is low or high? Thanks

Hi, No my water is not cloudy when adding profito. About the age of the aquarium is 6 months, all (most part) plants inside have age. I like so much buce, and in my aqua they are so ugly... :happy: In the opposite side, I didn't like java fern petite, and in my aqua is very beautiful...

HI, my dKH is 2/3, ph 7. GH I don't know but is low because my water is very soft. Manganese is good, from the jbl test the color is "strong rose". As I said, for macro I use 2HR Aquaris guide, but for micros I use easy life profito 15ml 3 times per week.

HI, all, My aquarium is about 300 liters, 1m front, twinstart 900EA, eheim professional4+ 600, pressurized CO2 with twinstart difusor (3 bubles per second). see picture. I use fertilization guide from 2HR Aquarist, everything grows fine except bucephalandras, why they have algae and holes, if...

thanks conort2, that is what I need to do also. Thanks

I will remove my fish from the tank during the change of subtract. I will get one container with +-50 litres and put my water, running filter, heater and fish inside during this maintenance (2hours). Then I will remove sand, make may new scape with some tropica soil and wood. Fill with water at...

HI, all, I have a doubt, about subtract and amonia.. My aquarium (300ltrs ) is running for 10 months, I have 13 tetras, 15 barbs and 4 corydoras and 2 gouramis, the subtract is sand, fine sand. Because of this poor subtract I have few plants, I intend to change the subtract to "tropica soil"...
