Hi guys
Received my 1400ef+ today. Would have been set up by now if 2 of the media trays weren't broken and if the uv switch on the head unit hadn't fallen into the unit. Hopefully aps will sort me out without too much hassle but couple of quick questions..
I have the eheim installation set (inlet and outlet) anyone got any experience of using either the eheim hose onto the filter or using the slightly smaller aps hose onto the installation set?
What is the best order for the media, does the water flow from the top of the filter down, therefore ceramics, bio balls then something else at the bottom?
Can you remove the floss cotton on the bottom of each of the trays to improve flow, does it help significantly? Can you replace with a more open filter sponge (like the eheim blues)
