  • can eheim ecco 2236 run a 75 by itself?

    i was wanting to cut the filtration in my tank and was wondering if an eheim ecco 2236 would be able to run a 75 by itself?

    stock:
    1 flowerhorn

    canister setup:
    --eheim substrate + filter floss
    --eheim substrate
    --eheim substrate
    --filter floss + blue sponge

    tank:
    75 gallon bare bottom with coral chips on bottom.
    Koralia 1 to help with movement.

    If all you have in there is that one fish....then I would say that the Eheim Ecco 2236 will be fine.

      as much as id like to say no, with a small powerhead to not let the waste settle, youd probably be fine.

        I also think you will need a powerhead on the tank. Just as Mark stated... to keep your waste from settling and for surface agitation.

          It's a FH.
          I ate my fish that died.
