The cheapest I've found is $252 on eBay after browsing online. Anyone know of anywhere cheaper? I'm ordering one today to go on my 350 with my ehiem 2262.

They're the same price on amazon but I'm pretty sure that doesn't include the media. The fx6 is $80 more and includes the media with 10% less power consumption and 10% more flow but it might not really be worth the difference in price. I'm thinking about running the same combination of canisters (2262 and fx6) on my 240 but a sump is sounding so much better right now

Yea, first two places I checked. My budget is really $250 or less, however a couple dollars for fx5 will be fine.

I bought mine on amazon as well for around $250...the cheapest I've ever seen them was $220 and I believe that was a black Friday sale somewhere and I haven't seen them for less than $250 since.
 
I'd go with the 6 the fx5 raised my power consumption noticably

I'm really trying to stay below $200-$250 at most. I'm debating now because I think the fx5 will be to much current with my 2262 and wavemakers because they have to fight current now. I'm thinking maybe marineland c-530 or aquatop 500uv.

Craigslist and other people on here sell them frequently for 160-180 used. Then buy your own specific media as all of them will come with the foam blocks being used and all.

In all months I've looked on cl here in my area I've never seen one.
