Lady-Lene Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Can anyone tell me how much does one of these babies push through in an hour? Also will it be big enough on a 400ltr tank by itself or will I need to hook up my Aqua One CF500 for a bit of extra grunt? Ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady-Lene Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Ta Alan - thats 2228 right? I tried googling it and only seemed to get parts etc. Been to about 20 sites! No my day. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady-Lene Posted April 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Yes ... well that would explain it .... there is no 2228! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpidersWeb Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 I did a quick hunt and the 2228 was replaced by the newer 2028, however they both have the same flow rate 1050L/hr. I'd say that'd be around the minimum for a 400L tank, would depend on tank load etc and what media you have in the Eheim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady-Lene Posted April 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Cools thanks for that! Will have 190cm of fish and recommended is 215cm I think?. Once fully grown though that would be 277cm (not that I could let those clown loaches grow full-size) so best to run the Aqua One as well. Can't over-filter can you.

SpidersWeb Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Clown Loaches are awesome Takes a few weeks for them to get used to you though, so dont be discouraged by them hiding all the time if they do. They will take a damn long time to outgrow a 400L My six are in a 150L tank with a breeding pair of angels and kribensis. They like to squeeze themselves in to things, you'd be amazed at what they'll fit in to. Can't over-filter, so if you have a spare go for it If you're stretched for filters, then I wouldn't be too worried about leaving the 2028 to do its job alone. We've got a few underfiltered tanks here that are ok as long as we do a 20-30% weekly water change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
