alanmin4304 Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I have someone who wants to buy a couple of baby turtles and is bidding on a tank on trademe (151607010). The filter looks like it would have reasonable capacity but I am not familiar with the make. Does anyone know what make it is, capacity and are they reliable?

Wok Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I would say that it has more than enough capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Yea it looks a lot like my Eheim but has three baskets instead of two, is probably about as good and a lot cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 The filter is an atman. Anyone have any knowledge of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPS Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hi Alan, It is made by Chuangxing Electrical in China http://www.chuangxing.com.cn/en/about.asp and is a copy of the Eheim Professional. (they have the ribs cast in the corners). This company's branding is Atman. Also make the Atman CF type for inhouse (no ribs) and rename it Aqua One CF series for Kongs. They have tanks as well :-). I know because I travel to China often.:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted April 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Thankyou for the info, that was just what I was after. Cheap knockoff but probably almost as good and half the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
