After the leaking issues on hose connectors on my 2180 and 2128 I just like the simplicity of a big canister and powerful pump on top, very little to go wrong and on big tanks that's a bonus.
I run a 2260 with a 1262 pump upgrade (3400lph) and a 2180 on my 700LTish tank. If I had the choice again I would have gone for another 2260 over the fancy new eheims which I have had numerous issues with. Going by the 10x rule a 2260+1262 pump is nearly there, could use a smaller classic filter...
The 2260 is a beast, and a fantastic filter. On my last scape it ran for 2 years with me not opening it up for clean and it ran practically the same when I did eventually clean it, so good choice!
The 2260 comes with a big heavy duty media bag that is essential when cleaning the filter.
I use...
Hi John,
I have 2 x 1ns and a nano in my discus tank,with 2 eheim externals, if your just looking for better circulation then i have found these have done a very good job and in a bigger tank two smaller would be better than one large one IMO
