eheim 2260 media help...

[bomber]

I have a 210g 6x2x2.5 tank with 2x 2260 eheim canister filters. This set up is for my aro set up because I have read that they need crytal clear water. Since I already have these filters. . I have read and learned alot here at MFK.com and would love some pro input on what to put in my canister filter. I need items(media) that I can purchase online(please type in where u purchase these media items) or at the lfs. And I also need the right order for my media. bio, chem, mechanical.... Im not sure what order to use. This set up is for my future silver/black/jardini aro's. Any contructive critizism would help me greatly.

Photos of the tank up and running soon....

thanks in advance,
bomber

5L of ehfimech, and 15L of ehfisubstrat pro is the best for each filter. You can buy this stuff pretty much anywhere that sells eheim filters. There are many other medias, but these are the best easily acquired media.

fully agree with WyldFya.

in my 2x 2260's my filtration is mechanical then bio. coarse sponge/wool/ceramic Siporax rings from Germany/final layer of wool to polish the water before it goes back to my tank.
