The Eheim Classic range of external filters have remained unchanged for many years, why? Because they are simple, easy to use, reliable and offer value for money – as such they’re still very popular today.

Eheim Classic 600 (2217) Canister Filters have a compact pump coupled with a large volume canister for filter media. This range of filters is suitable for aquaria up to 600lts. The Eheim Classic range is extremely quiet and reliable; providing extremely effective filtration for both freshwater and marine aquariums.

Ehfimech should be used in the base of the canister to provide mechanical filtration. Following this a layer of Ehfifix provides further coarse filtration, followed by a layer of Ehfisubstrat which offers the biological filtration necessary for a healthy aquarium. EhfiActive can then be added to provide chemical filtration, followed by a layer of Ehfisynth which will trap any fine particles remaining. Eheim offer an extensive range of further media which can be tailored to your specific requirements.

High operating pump output reliability, to protect against overheating. O-ring fixed on the pump head for convenient handling. Optimum choice of materials for years of quiet, continuous trouble-free operation. Pump output 1000l/h Filter volume 6l Power consumption 20w
