Fluval has some interesting looking machine in its professional range and there is no reason that one should not give them a try

I agree with you bro
But the only conviencing factor that makes me think of fluval is cost.....
Rest in all eheim is the winner

And i personally have used many eheim filters and currently using never had a problem or never disappointed ....

I use the Eheim Pro3 2073. This line of Eheim is meant specifically for planted tanks as the flow rate is low. I have used the Fluval 405 in the past and have had serious trouble with their O-rings. Even the Eheim had a problem with the impeller motor but I got a free replacement of the entire head.

Note that Eheim has actually re-designed the head of the Pro3 series. You will read a whole lot of complaints of the earlier head assembly, but the new one is perfect.

Eheim generally means a filter for life. The German build quality is absolutely outstanding.
