Eheim Classic 600 2217020 External Filter for Aquarium 1000 L/h < 600 L with Tap

To let other potential buyers know, this Eheim Classic 150 (2211) comes with 2 outlet pipes (Shepard's crook and spray bar), 1 inlet pipe, all tubing required, 1 coarse blue sponge and 1 white fine filter floss pad. You are going to need to buy extra filter media to fill it. I'd advise some ceramic media and extra sponges. I also bought two Eheim quick release double taps to facilitate easy removal of tubing from filter when cleaning the canister.Regarding the performance of the filter, this is the second one I have bought. I have another which is 5 years old and still working flawlessly. I have it running on a 30L freshwater aquarium and it is perfect for the role. The filter's flow, volume, media versatility, efficiency and quietness make it great, not to mention the build quality which is second to none. Importantly, there is no bypass of filter media on this filter if set up correctly with suitable media. This is due in part to the classic tried and tested design of the filter, with the water inlet being on the bottom rather than the top; as found in most other of the other external filter designs. The water rises up through the canister and is pumped back up to the tank via a whisper quiet pump at the top.The reputation of Eheim Classic filters is well deserved. Buy one, you won't be disappointed!!!

Be gentle with it, it won't break easily

EU plug with no UK adaptor supplied (Cost £5.00 to buy EU/UK 5A rated good quality mains adaptor), however it’s a good filter for 25 to 35 litre aquariums. Classic 150 is very quiet when running, keeps my 25 litre planted breeding aquariums water healthy, still provides an ok flow when approaching filter cleaning/maintenance window, and only had to clean it out every 4 to 6 weeks.Spray bar + intake strainer + pipework all work fine and built solid enough, however you will need to buy the various bio media ceramics as it only comes supplied with 1x coarse pad, 1x carbon pad & 1x fine filter pad. I’d also suggest buying some Ehiem Double Taps; as this makes life so much easier when cleaning Eheim Canister filters (Hence 4/5 review due to additional costs). Worth purchasing Eheim's External Prefilter intake strainer if you want to stretch the canister filter cleaning period further.

Excellent.To prime just fill up at the sink.connect pipesturn plug on that's it.Warning no uk plug soYou have to buy a adaptor comes with a eu plug.You will need a uk 3 pin plug adaptor.not that amazon will tell you that
