    Eheim classic canister material?

    Is the old 2213 green canister acrylic? Could it be glued to acrylic? Could it be run upside down? I want to try to take my old 2213 that had a cracked bottom and make a open system sump/moving bed filter. I cut the bottom out of the canister, and want to glue it into a sump system. Sent

    Virtual tank design

    Yes That he been the consciences online. I'm also keen to build the sump as large as the tank. One concern maybe is making sure to get a variable sped pump to control the flow, not so much of the water in the tank, but the water leaving the tank. It would seem that it might be a mess. R Sent

    Virtual tank design

    Afternoon Still waiting to pay of my tax bill before I embark on another tank related project. But in the meantime I am reading researching and designing possible builds. I ran across an article about moving bed filters, and I really want to try it out. I would like to build a large one in a...

    To drill, or not.

    I just drilled my 140l tank and so far it is great. I got the plumbing from fish fur and feather. No leaking on bulkheads. I have 12mm goin in and out. And did not glue the strainers or the spray bar in the tank. With the filter turned off and the valves shut below. You can reach into the tank...

    Tempered or not?

    I am replacing the bottom of a tank with glass cut for plumbing... Do I need to temper it, or not? The glass sits on a 18mm birch ply, so I would think that it would help to support. Cheers R Sent

    boosting flow of an eheim external using a pump

    What about adding the second pump to be a needle wheel co2 diffuser? I am running a eheim 2217 out a 80cm spraybar on the back. The flow is just about enough. But I wanted some type of inline co2 plus was contemplating an inline purigen reactor down the line, and I have been researching adding a...

    Canister gravel cleaner...
