Hello folks
I have at last realised my eco pro 300 doesnt do the job for my 180 litre juwel vision..... My tank has dead spots where gunk gathers & when I disturb the gunk it doesnt seem to get sucked up, it just settles back down. Also the flow has been drastically reduced by the tubes getting gunk in them.
I thought I had a brain storm ( beginning to think its was more a brain fart now though) and ordered a eheim 2224 which arrived today. The plan was to have 2 filters drawing from each end with the flow going outwards the front of the tank. Total combined flow = 1450 lph.
Is this a good idea? Or would I be better placed sending the 2224 back, stick the eco pro on ebay & get one bigger filter like a eheim 2075 with 1250 lph? Would the more powerful filter suck up more of the the gunk & eliminate the dead spots more effectively than the 2 small ones I already have?
any pointers would be much appreciated
Cheers
