Ok was looking at changing the downstairs filter to an external unit and
the LFS has both an Aqua Pro at 45 UK pounds and an Eheim at £65,
sooooooo..... is the eheim worth it?

Also, you lot that use external filters, is there anything that i should
be particularly aware of?


SNIP loads of good advice.

My advice, go when a store is relatively quiet and have a knowledgeable
clerk assemble and demonstrate how the different models are serviced.
Everyone has different things they look for, so get comfortable with the
design they show you. Based on the price difference and the level of
customer service you receive, you then purchase it there (or wait for a
sale) or buy it on-line (much cheaper), although I've had customers who
were insulted by this suggestion. They felt that for the cost difference,
it was worth supporting a store, if the livestock and advice were good
enough (ymmv).



Thanks for that, all noted
