What fish you keeping? I find 2213 current too strong for my tank. Had to use eheim quick taps to reduce the flowrate abit.

I'm using the 2213 on my 1.5ft planted. I think it's just right for that size. I feel 2ft should go for 2215 at least.

You may want to consider Eheim 2213 and 2215. Also Atman Canister Cf-600 will also be a good choice. Myself, i have used all the canister mentioned and they have performed very well

I think 2215 is more suitable for 3ft. For 2ft tank, 2213 should be enough I'm using 1x 2213 for my 2ft currently. 1 year problem free!
