WTS 2FT equipment prefably as a set


Recommended Posts

I ask for your patience to read this entire post.

My tank was powered by 2 eheim canisters + 1 skimmer:

1. 2227 Wet/Dry biological filter (1500L/H)

2. 2224 normal canister filled with chemical media (700L/H)

3. Prizm (600L/H)

Total flow: 2800L/H (theoretically speaking)

Normal 2ft tank comes up to much less then 100L but assuming its 100L

Water cycle rate = 2800 / 100 = 28 Times and hour

It is known that flow rate will be lower then stated because of the force wasted in pumping water up into the tank against gravity. Conservatively speaking I will half my water cycle rate to 14 times an hour and even so that still beats any tank easily hands down. At most normal tanks achieve 6 - 7 times an hour.

This is the key to success in my aquarium. High cycle rate means water gets 'cleaned' many times an hour.

Many say sumps are better, have more flexibility but face it, with a 2ft tank, and only a 2ft sump, what can you do in the sump? you won't even have space for a chiller. Canisters are not that difficult to clean. My eheim ones detach easily without a drip of water and the canister can be taken sepeately without disturbing the pipings to the bathroom for washing.

I wish to sell my equipment as one full set because alot of thought has gone into designing it to make the optimum use of space and resources. It is a sure to work system for anyone who takes it.

Below is a picture, please PM if you're keen to find out more.

I'd be selling (prefably as a set)

1. eheim 2227

2. eheim 2224

3. prizm with overflow attachment

4. MH light

5. Teco RA200 chiller

I'd really like to sell it as a whole set because this whole system really works very well together like that. Give me a while more to see if anyone is keen on the set. If not i will dismantle for individual sales.
