Your opinions about fluidized bed filters ?I recently bought this http://www.aquaristic.net/shop.php/sid/f5a7192ef237e084158734ee74df6f90/cl/details/cnid/15243fb718e4f6502.17456648/anid/s-065010/tpl/-/lang/1/listtype/list and I 'll conect it after a 2213 Eheim as a second filter (f.bed +2213+other filter) in 300 lts

Wow! I haven't seen a Merlin in years! Yes, a fluidized bed filter is a great bio filter. They will clog if large particles are allowed to go directly into the filter. If you connect it after your 2213, you should be fine, provided the out flow from the 2213 is not too strong, or too weak to run the Merlin.

FBs are the bomb, perhaps the most efficient biofilter in the business...until the prefilter gets clogged, or the power goes out, then the suffocate way faster than a W/D. ideal is to do both together.
