i was never really looking for one so never paid much attention, but I am pretty sure I saw them in Newlands at some stage, but I suggest that you phone first, just to be sure.

I have a hydor external heater and the 300watt internal glass heater that came with my Rio 240. So I'm covered. I read somewhere that the integrated heater in the Eheim 2126 reacts badly to tonic salt which I've never used anyway, so I've no problems.

Daragh.Thanks for the advice on the filter and heater.I was up in AV yesterday and they have the tetratec filters at a great price.I have never heard anything about the hydro external heaters all i can say is they look great and have read some good reviews about them today.Might you know where you might get one.
I have a friend with a tetratec filter and he thinks there great. I have experience using the Hydor external heater and have nothing but praise for it. The only negative was the reduced flow from the filter when using it. Online is the best place to get the hydor heater.

Eheim External Filter Professionel II Special 2026
Fantastic Filter
Good size fits great under my tank (48/15/12inches tank), the flow is great and the build quality is flawless, I use to have a fluval 405 before hand and had alot of issues this these, I thought I would try a Eheim as everyone seems to recomend them and I see why.

I have now had this running since March and still loving it,
