Eheim's in series

[ILLUSN]

shouldn't be but the 12mm hose in and out would slow your flow a bit, if your using a pro3 series just add your floss inplace of the blue pad and change it weekly, the prefiltration would be just about perfect with no loss of flow and the plumbing would be much easier.

just dont get slack on the maintence.

Thanks

Does he floss work better than the blue sponge as a pre-filter?

[ILLUSN]

floss is finner, the idea of a pre filter is to trap all the gunk before it gets to your media where it settles out and eventually clogs the small pores.

Haven't put the pro 3 2075 into action yet - in only arrived in the mail yesterday, but was pleased to see eheim got rid of the pipe going up through the middle of the baskets that the pro II's have.

Do you find the priming function in your pro 3 actually works?

Hi Robyn,

I found the priming function struggled on my 2028 but there were two other issues that may have impacted on that particular performance.

One is that the top of the glass is 170cm (max head height is 180) and the outflow pipe adds a couple of cm to that.

The other problem is that at the moment I have my UV filter in before the 2028. I was getting some water into the system but not enough to run the motor.

In the end I disconnected the couplings and opened the valves manually. I was a bit surprised to get a huge rush of water (hand me the towels please), which flushed out the rest of the air from the system. No further problems.

Regards,

Bob

PS, the latest pics of the new wild set up are great, thanks for sharing.

pro3 priming is flawless, you have no idea how good this series of filters till you try them out, have a play you'll be impressed.
