I'm selling the Hydro Prime 10 at $55, bought from HK a few mths ago at HKD400 (approx SGD80)... that's something within your budget... and i was previously using it for my 2ft tank before i bought the 2213...
erm, thanks for ur offer. but $55 still abit high for used one.
i got a friend can sell me a hydro prime brand new one for slightly higher price...

thanks anyways!

Welcome...

I've no clue how much a brand new Hydro Prime 10 is going for in Singapore.. But if your fren can offer u a slightly higher than $55 price, I would say go for it! Because an Eden501 already cost $50+ for a brand new one!

Cheers~

Sorry should be Hydor.. typo in the earlier postings...

I think itz an italian made brand, but i've no idea if itz good because I only used it for 2-3 months (without encountering any problems though).. the reason why i decommissioned it is because i have 2 other eheims 2213 (making a total of 3), so in terms of filter media I'll can buy only 1 size (2213) instead of 2 different sizes (prime10 and 2213), more cost effective for me...

And the Hydor Prime 10 is auto priming, the 2213 i gotta suck the water in...

Reduce the flow rate by controlling the output tap valve... i've done it for 2 yrs, no worries abt the filter spoiling!
