What's the best canister?

[smmfish]

I have recently set up a 125 gallon tank with 2 aquaclear 110 HOB filters. I wanted to add a canister since the occupants are O's, pleco's and cons. What is the best canister out there. Give me some ideas!!!!

I'd say the Eheim series is the best overall, but there are some that are better out there. I personally really like the ADA canister that has an Iwaki pump.

I use eheim and have no complaints, and the fish i keep produce a lot of waste

Howdy,

If you mean "best" as in "reliable, long-lasting, recommended by other MFKers", the check HERE

Thanks, I have been looking and think I am going to go with the Eheim 2211.
Sounds like a darn good filter.

i am running a fluval 404 and 304 on my 125g lightly stocked tank. I am using these because thats what I got with the tank and have been impressed so far. I bought a magnum 350 pro with the biowheels for another tank and what a joke that thing is. Magnum is easier to access and clean/change media than the fluvals but the output on both the fluvals are amazing. Check out the fluval fx5

Ehiem 2250/2260 as good as it gets for dirty fish like o's. The newer 2080 looks a good buy too as it has the bonus of twin uplifts and the sponge at the top for easy cleaning.
