Ehiem 2262 vs FX-5

[freak78]

So I'm running both of these on my 210. First time messing with an ehiem. I must say this ehiem is hands down better. How much Bio media you can put in it and it's flow rate is just crazy. From here on out I will save the extra money and get the Ehiem.

Have a few of each over here as well. I couldn't agree with you more. I think FX5's are easier to clean and I prefer their hoses. Hard to beat the big Eheim canisters overall though.

im biased as i always used eheims, but they are honestly tanks..
i have an eheim 2217 that is close to 20 years old and its still runs like
a champ. only thing i ever changed has been an impeller.

its so old that the pump housing was made in West Germany
