I have also used JBL, they are very good quality and quite a bit cheaper than eheim I had a couple of ProAquas on a 6x2x2, they did the job but are not good quality; the taps and clips are quite flimsy; and my electricity bill was noticably higher while I had those running...

I also have a Jebo 815 and an AquaOne CF-1000 running on my smaller tanks. All my externals are doing great and I have no problems with tham. I did have an Eheim rickle filter but it kept leaking, and cutting out and the internal heater kept overheating, so it's been replaced with an OTTO 450g. I also used to use the Fluval 404 but had nothing but problems with it. In my opinion they don't hold enough filter medium. Internally I have some sponge filters run on air in my baby tank, undergravels in all my tanks except the baby tank and some internal poerheads on my undergravels. My tanks are now all stable and practically running themselves, except for their weekly water changes. So I do a lot of sitting back and watching my fish now. -o00o- Haidee "I'd hug you, but first I need a new shirt.

I think it does a good job of filtering though. We have it on a 4x18x18 along with a fluval 304, its flowrate is awesome and its so easy to get going unlike alot of canister filters, We were so happy with it we got another one for the other 4x18x18. We also have a jebao, its enormous not sure of the model but it just stopped working the other day, I'm still using it, i've just connected a power head to the out pipe. In the fish room we are using trickle filters, and they seem to be doing a great job. I was looking at buying a jebao 815 or 818 off ebay, the seller says they are sold in europe under the SERA brand. they look very similar to the fluval designs. does anybody have one? if so what are they like?
