Hi
I have a 6ft tank with various american cichlids. WhenI had 2 x eheim 2028 filters the water was crystal clear and never had problems.
I thought I would upgrade to to 2 x eheim pro3 2080 filters. Now the water is not clear, has been like that for weeks on end. Looks like the filters are not doing as a good job as their predecesors.
It seems like I need a 3rd filter just for mechanical filteration as there are little bits of 'floaties' in the water.
I have stocked the pro3's just like they advertise on the box, does anyone have any ideas or advise on how they setup their pro3's?
 
I'm from the UK
don't think we have AC110's

what a nightmare, I might just have to put back the eheim 2028's, headache to move the tanks etc
