Re: [Killietalk] Power filter help

["Drummond Howard" <drummondhoward at hotmail_com>]

On my larger aquariums 55 & 75 I have Eheim canister filters.  Never had a 
problem in 15 years.  Expensive, but it's nice to be able to disconnect the 
filter and put the whole thing in the sink to clean.  Also their new double 
isolating valves are much better, they can be taken apart and cleaned, 
unlike the old style.  I had a couple that leaked a little.  After a few 
minutes work they were better than new.  just needed a little silicone 
grease on the o rings sealing the ball valves.
