The carbon pads are excellent for absorptive filtration to eliminate toxins from your tank. Review: Works great. The only issue with this filter is that ... - Works great. The only issue with this filter is that most local stores do not carry the parts for it so you have to make sure you have extra parts on hand just in case. The flow can be rather strong too but I put it facing the glass and it hasn't caused any issues. Overall, I would buy it again. Review: great for the canister filter - we have this in our canister filter and it has been great. The water has been clear for around 3 months now. We had had to do normal cleaning but the filter had been working great ## Features - Absorbative filtration - Eliminates harmful toxins from your tank - Comes in sets of three - For use with EHEIM Classic Canister Filter 2217 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002JEKAA | | Best Sellers Rank | #88,582 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #1,347 in Aquarium Filter Accessories | | Brand | Eheim | | Brand Name | Eheim | | Compatible Water Purifier Models | AquaTru Alkaline, Classic | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 242 Reviews | | External Testing Certification | FDA | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00720686260665 | | Included Components | all | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 2"D x 2"W x 0.25"H | | Item Type Name | Filter Media | | Item Weight | 0.1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Eheim | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2628170 | | Material | Activated Carbon | | Material Type | Activated Carbon | | Model Number | 2628170 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Benefits | Removes Impurities | | Product Dimensions | 2"D x 2"W x 0.25"H | | Set Name | 3 | | UPC | 720686260665 | | Unit Count | 3 Count | ## Product Details - **External Testing Certification:** FDA - **Item Weight:** 1.6 ounces - **Material:** Activated Carbon - **Product Benefits:** Removes Impurities - **Product Dimensions:** 2"D x 2"W x 0.25"H ## Images ![Carbon Filter Pad for Classic External Filter 2217 (3 Pieces) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91iMkKcRCEL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How often should I change carbon pad?** A: I change them following the schedule on the box, alternating 30 then 60 days. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great.
