    Eheim Pro 3 filter 2080

    I have just been given one of these filters.

    It is very impressive

    It is going on a new 8 foot tank, so I will do a product review on it when I have everything up and running.

    So far, I have to say, I love it.

    It's a beautiful piece of engineering.

    Hi Merrilyn,

    Is that the model that you can alter the flow rate on? If it is and the same as a mate of mine bought a couple of months ago you will love it. He reckons its the best cannister filter hes had in 50 years of breeding.

    As far as canisters go I'd say that is what you call "Bling Bling"!

    Ahhhh I see I should qualify that statement.

    I have been given the use of this beautiful filter for the next six months, then it goes back to it's rightful owner *sigh*.

    But till then, I get to play with it. I feel like a kid in a toy shop

    Having seen a couple of these, in and out of there packing...

    Major drool material.

    However, it doesnt come with all the attachments that the Pro II series comes with (even my Aquis 2400 had the same bits as the Pro II).

    There is no surface skimmer, and the spray bars arent the really good e-heim ones.

    However you get a bucket load of the good Pro series media.

    Yes it is, but it isnt the cheapest filter going around.

    You wont get a whole lot of change from $900-$1000
