So I had a rena xp3 on my 30 gallon turtle/cichlid growout tank but now I have an eheim 2217 running on that tank with extra bio media. On my 240 gallon I have 1 rena xp4 and 1 rena xp3. I noticed that the tops for each filter is the same, only difference being the impellers.....So if I were to get a rena xp4 shell, impeller and another media basket, would that basically be an XP4 but with reduced pricing? Thanks, everyone!

I may be wrong but i dont think it would make it an xp4...its the power of the motor, not the impeller...they may look the same but the motor is more powerful in the xp4 top..youd have a different impeller, but same gph
