Description: Eheim Pro 4+ 600 video: youtube.com/watch?v=b-sPyqBOTcA Eheim Pro 5e 600T video: youtube.com/watch?v=ofGVnSf5MNk Oase Biomaster 850 video: youtube.com/watch?v=ujIQ9Kb1fPo Biohome filter media: filterpro.co.uk Family water filter: filterpro.co.uk/water-filters-12-c.asp Nothing and nobody (including myself) is perfect but for Eheim, Fluval and Oase canister filters they have to be damn close since they are the best known and most highly respected. This video is my thoughts on those companies and as mentioned in his video I really hope Eheim can pull back some of their reputation and I hope it's not too late. The Eheim Pro 4 and Pro 5 filters I have been less than impressed with could have been explained and forgiven for some less-than-perfect construction issues if the filters were priced to compete with low to mid price range competitors but the are by far the most expensive - if they make another range of filters how many people will have already switched to their competitors? As Eheim make much better filter media than both Fluval and Oase it's unbelievable that they do not supply the Substrat Pro with their premium range filters - it is a genuinely good media so why not include it with the filters? That seems like a terrible business decision as it opens the door for customers to source media from other (rival) manufacturers and the vast majority of people will stick with the factory set up for their filters and go back to the manufacturer for replacement foams and media if they come ready set up at the time of purchase. Unlike many other channels I don't do sponsorship / paid adverts / payment for reviews so what I say when I take a filter apart for the first time is how it is - not what any company wants me to say. I've seen it said in many comments on other people's videos that because I don't use my channel as a source of income that I must have a problem with channel owners who do but nothing is further from the truth - I run the channel my way without paid sponsorship / paid adverts etc. because I have to stay impartial for my own code but I can appreciate why others would place a cost on each sponsored video they make since it takes time to shoot and edit a video and not many people would want to do that for free. With the way the world is now I can appreciate even more why anyone would use a channel to generate income since the economy of the world is becoming corrupted to strip everyone of wealth - If you have a good channel and can earn from it then ride that rocket as long as you can. To the people making money from paid ads, sponsorship etc. the way I run my channel may seem strange but it works for me since the energy I give out is returned other ways (which are more important to me than 'money') and I am not beholding to any company or individual.
