I can only go by your experience and then I can make my choice, Lucky I have so much choice. Now the fact you can purchase 2x 2217 for a little more than half that of the 2080(with media) can you really tell me its worth spending the extra.and why you would. so if I apply Taksan's divide by 3 rule, with EHEIM Specs on paper they are close. Eheim Classic 1500 XL 2260 Canister Filter w/o Med. Ok so there is an extra 10w of power (40w in total) for both the 2217 filters compared to 30w of the 2080. Artica Chiller 1/3 HP The Only Aquarium Chiller UL Listed on the Market JBJ Lighting is proud to. So two 2217 in theory would go close to one 2080 biologically and even at 600L/hr each would match the flow of the 1207 L/Hr of the 2080, and looking at Illusn's "Eheim in series" post and the flow rates he got has me re-thinking what I need.ĮHEIM 2080 has 12L + 1.5L of media (Eheim media kit, 8L substrat pro, 4L mech and pads) has a real flow rate of 1207 L/Hr (Taksan data)ĮHEIM 2217 has 6L of media, 4L substrat Pro, 1L mech and course/fine foam pads with a flow of 649L/Hr.(from Illusns measurements) Eheim 2213 120 100 0.8 66 2215 164 165 1 92 2217 264 208 1. I have read Taksan's review so many times I nearly know it of by heart. Well I still havent got my head around spending so much on one filter,(the 2080), and have gone back through many posts to find some actual data.
