If you’re a novice, you’ll want to get a filter that is easy to set up, easy to operate, and easy to clean. Large volume filters with high GPH filtration rates are the direction most tank owners lean toward. Canister filters are for big tanks, so you’ll need to make sure that the one you get is powerful enough for your particular aquarium. We all know about at least some of the canister filter basics. What You Need To Remember About Canister Filters If you need a super-powerful filter, this may not be your first choice, but if you are just getting into the canister filter game or require something smaller, this might be what you need.
#EHEIM 2260 CRAIGSLIST PRO#
This filter comes equipped with German-made Eheim Mech and Substrat Pro filtration media, as well as all necessary filter baskets, spray bars, inlet pipes, hoses, valves, etc. This is helpful if you’re not into dragging a heavier filter over to the sink for cleaning, or you need to balance the power of your filter with something that’s going to fit in the limited space you have. The trade-off here is that the 2213 is considerably smaller and lighter than other canister filters, at 5.5lbs.
