I was interested to see what was the majority of MFK members using as there canisters, I am thinking that Eheim will be the majority rules, but thats why I made this poll!
 
I don't use canisters at home.. but from customer feedback I've gotten.. Rena's, and Fluval's seem to be favorites. Eheims would be too I think if replacement parts wheren't such a pita to get ahold of.
 
2-fx5 and a 405
 
3 years runnin and no parts needed go fluval
 
I have one Eheim and maintenance on it is kind of a PITA IMO. The only canisters I'm currently running are Fluvals and I'm thinking about trying one of the Sun-Sun/Perfect or Odyssea based on some reviews I've seen online. Sounds like they work well (with a few mods) and are pretty cheap

I love my eheim, I bought it used and it was 20 years old. All I did was replace a o-ring, But I had a guy that has the hook up with eheim order it for me, So I cant say much on how i had to get the part. I forgot to add sun-sun or odyssea to the vote. But arnt they the same as jebo?
 
I have two Marinelands that I use, one was bought for $5 so I went and got a second because I thought it worked well.

Haven't tried any other brands though, don't have much spare money for super expensive filters.
