I can not comment on eheim, we have never used nor owned one. So there's no way the FX6 would even accommodate my bio. If you want high quality, low noise and and easy maintenance go with the fluval fењ†. Returned it, went to the LFS, picked up the FX4, then decided to go with the FX6. I had purchased a refurbished FX4 from Amazon, but came with broken pieces. Eheim Classic 250 - 2213 (With Sponge Media) Canister Filter. When I was about to purchase this filter, I was undecided and was tempted on the fluval fењ†. If I could have found the Eheim that is equivalent to the FX4/6, I would have bought it. Hi all, I currently have a 5 foot tank which I am taking down after an escape of water damaged my cabinet, carpet and skirting boards and have decided to bite the bullet and get the tank of my dreams, a 900L 8x2x2 monster I have been very happy with the. This review will save you hours of searching. Which means I currently have 8L bio, and 4L of mech + the prefilter sponges. I really wanted a Eheim, but didnt think the 2217 would be good enough for a 75 gallon. I read a review of the FX5 and it said 6L of bio and 25l of sponges.Д®DIT: OKAY! Each tray in the Eheim 2080 = 4L. I bought my 2080 used and it came with all media, so I'm not sure exactly how much is in there in terms of the Eheim Mech and Eheim Substrat Pro. I really wanted to just dump my media in instead of running two filter for a while etc. eheims strsta filter 2260 r det som ligger nrmast ett fx5 men det har mindre flde och drar mer strm n fx5.

The difference between the 2260 and the 2262 is the size of pump. I'm assuming the 2075 trays are smaller? I was hoping that the FX6 would take all my bio, and I could just use the sponges in the FX6 for the mechanical side of things. A Eheim 2260 or 2262 is basically a 5 gallon bucket with a pump on top. My 2080 has 3 trays - 2x I have filled with bio, and the other mech.
