You are absolutely amazing for making this video. I’ve watched a ton of videos on this and this is the most detailed one for a beginner and it truly helped me understand what was going on with the filter and what to do to get it started. Fabulous job and thank you so much! Now please make a video 1-2 months later on how to clean it! :) hahaha
You did a great job in this video. (With one hand). The main reason why I shyed away from the eheim filters for years because I heard that the assembly was so hard and frustrating. I'm convinced now I can handle the assembly with no problem, thanks!
Really nice video I have a Juwel 33 gallon, with an internal Juvel M filter and an external Eheim 150 classic. The water since Eheim has been there is obviously cleaner and the fish have stopped dying.
Love your explanation! I have classic eheim for some 30 years now…very reliable. If you have a lot of biological media in mesh bags these canisters offer a lot of extra volume compared to the filters with baskets.
I've been using the Eheim 2217 since 1990. They are great filters. In 33 years this filter has never let me down. Eheim is way way better than Fluval. Please burn your FX-4
Very well explained, great video. I have used Eheim Classic for many years, I did try others, including more "modern" Eheim and Oase canister filters, but I still find Classic the best. Some things you can just not improve on.
I’m gonna buy one for my 75 gallon slowly switching over all my filters to the classic eheim just ordered a 2262 for 1 of my two 180 gallons beautiful tank as well
Hello thanks for the video, it was helpful. One question, I also am using this as second filter, how long would you say before it build up enough beneficial bacteria and you were able to disconnect the fluval filter you showed?
@@midwestaquascaping2588 i'm complently sure that there's a dead zone in the middle of your tank. I have a college degree of aquacultor. I did several tests about the correct movement of water. I gave to you an advise. Just remember that dead zone is dangerous and unhealthy for your fish and plants
This is the quality of videos we need. And it even got a dog. All it need is more cat!

Amazing aquarium and top Eheim canister! Good job.
Thank you so much for your time and effort in making this helpful video. :)
Thx for this tutorial. If you did it with one hand while filming and explaning, I should be ok 🤪
👍
I am setting up my 600 soon. Taking references from your video here.

ily thank you so much!!
Thanks you very much for sharing mom..
very helpful for me..

Will the filter make this buzzing/humming noise forever?
Im gonna give u a tip, you should put your 2 filtres on the same side because they’re created cycle into the tank and avoid dead zones.
I have heavily planted tank. In the past I had one fx4 on one side. This way is better.

Thank for training, i will select ehiem classic 250. Cause thos video.
Muito obrigado pelo vídeo. Bem detalhado. Abraço aqui do Brasil !!
good for 100 gallon ?
Nice. Put silicone grease on both ends of the shaft and the oring.
had one of these years ago. i put all my media into women's tights to make the cleaning easier and quicker
I was unlucky, used one year the top suction creak, the plastic quality not too good😢
For the money, there is nothing better than Eheim, and I think they might be better than some much more expensive.
Thank you for this video
Thank you for the video!
❤fantastic
Shouldn't you put sponge first then media
Bag it makes cleaning a lot easier
What size tank do you have?
This is 80g
Thank you so much, now idont have to suck.....
Eheim Mech is not biomedia, its mechanical. The polishing pad should be under the Eheim Substrat Pro and the carbon above it.
merci très bon very god
Unfortunately since the switch to china quality has dropped
Doing it with one hand is effing ridiculous
wasted a lot of time with suction cups and such working with one hand. would be better if you just went right to the point,
This video could have been 10 minutes shorter if there was less repetition of obvious steps.
Thank mam..i love you im.from.the philippines.
Made in China ....😢
