Re: eheim question
Wow! I cleaned the tubes, and flow is 100% improved.
Thanks for all the good advice.
Here's how I did it. I had some 1/4in black
"irrigation" tubing laying around. This stuff is
pretty firm. Then I got some cotton "patches"
commonly used to clean rifle bores, and used the
tubing to push the patches through. The tubing is
strong/rigid enough to allow plenty of force. On the
other hand, it is flexible enough to negotiate the
180deg turns of the outlet and inlet hard-plastic
fixtures. Worked like a charm. At least 1 years
worth of stuff in those tubes. A sight to behold.
