Hi Guys
At the moment I have a Juwel rio 240 with the standard filter set up. I would like to upgrade to an external filter but have problems with the installation. I have tried a Fluval 305 but the hoses are to fat to fit behind the tank. My tank is currently on a custom made unit built into an alcove but there is only about 10mm of room behind and not enough at the front of my unit to shunt it forward any more.
The other problem is that there are two small cut outs at the back of the tank at the top to accept cables hoses etc, I found with the fluval that if i try to use the custom made clips the lid doesn't shut fully. I would rather not do any chopping about or make a new lid.
Does any body have any ideas on a canister filter which will fit?
