hallo people first of all is it ok to connect 2 x Eheim canister filters together on one tank-like making a bigger filter system i know there's not much info ill had that later just wondering if anyone as
 
Welcome! :)

No problem using two filters, but it's easiest if you keep them separate; if you try to connect them together it can get complicated.
 
Keep it simple and keep the filter separate.

Joining together filter input and filter output hoses is a big no-no.

If one filter is more powerful (or less blocked) than the other then it can push water the wrong way through the weaker filter. Couple of people have had a "wipe out" where the stronger filter has emptied out the contents of the weaker filter into the tank, wiping out the tank life.

Two use two filters (and 2 CO2 injectors) do it like this.
