Rena xP3 cannisters

Recommended Posts

Anyone on the board used this brand cannister before and have an opinion on there performance? I saw them in a shop for $189 with media and they seem to get a mention often on some of the overseas forums. The flow rate is about 1350L without media.

I have a Rena XP2, from Campbelltown PetAquarium.

It's been running for two years now, and I like it.

It's pretty quiet and seems to do the job.

The auto-cutoff and priming are great

Quibbles:

- no external taps on the inlet/outlet. I wanted to string a drip-fed denitrator coil from the outlrt to the inlet, but it looks like too much plumbing for me

- the media baskets float, so if you fill the canister after cleaning but before you put the lid on, it can be tough to seal the lid. Slower option is to refill the canister through the inlet.
