Eheim Ecco Pro

[Innivus]

I've had an Eheim Ecco Pro (model 2260) set up for about a year now, and it's terrible. It loses flow after a day, the GPH must be at 5 in a span of four or five days. AND it gets stuck when trying to 'pop' off the top, the suction is so strong it breaks the plastic nubs that hold the whole thing together... I've already replaced these nubs twice already, and now have to do it a third time...sigh.

Basically it creates a vacuum in the chamber, which diminishes flow AND means you can't open it without breaking it. A terrible, terrible product, which is a shame given the Eheim reputation.
