Re: Eheim classic external filter

Had another look at this,
http://www.eheim.de/eheim/inhalte/ind ... y=liniendetail_35205_ehenI might go and see if I can find one somewhere and have a look at how it goes together.
When I was doing my weekly clean the filter floss thing with the eheim aquaball, I just used to want to take the top bit out, I had 3 little baskets on it, and what would happen is that the whole thing would come apart and the filter floss fitted in a little fiddly cylinder which was inside one of the baskets but it didnt fill the basket, you put one of the sponge donuts in with it too. As you were trying to get at the top compartment the little lugs were so insecure that before you knew it your noodles were out! It never clogged, which was good, but the sponges didnt get that dirty and I kept thinking that somehow the water was bypassing them.
Please, someone invent the perfect filter for me.
This is what I want. Something like an external that I dont have to take out of the tank dripping all over ... The top should just flip up for me to get at the filter floss at the top easily. It should be self priming (no sucking!), and easy to turn the taps off and take apart, without being insecure and leaking. Also it shouldnt cost the earth, it should have numerous output options, and it should be silent.
