The canister detaches from the motor housing and suction cups, this makes maintenance extremely easy, simply turn the power off, detach the main canister and you will have instant access to de-gunk the impeller and then remove the sponges if necessary.
Operating the Eheim pickup is very simple. The filter is provided with a fitted filter sponge so it is ready to use straight out of the box.
I purchased the Eheim pickup which came with one large sponge, there are two available, one fine filter sponge and one that contains activated carbon. The filter itself is relatively powerful for a small internal, the turns over up to lph through the small outlet nozzle which creates a nice flow in the tank.
It is possible to use the filter with the outlet above the water to create a mini waterfall to aid in airation, or to attach the air pipe to create a stream of bubbles from the outlet. Maintenance is incredibly easy, as mentioned, the main canister which contains the sponges and impeller detaches from the bracket. This means that there is no faffing around refitting the bracket when you need to clean the filter. The canister simply slides away from the bracket allowing you quick access to the impeller and sponges.
The Eheim pickup is a high quality little filter. I tested the pickup on a litre aquarium which also had a small external fitted.
The Eheim pickup impressed me, the flow rate was good and it improved water clarity noticeably. The sponges in the filter provide fantastic mechanical filtration whilst providing lots of space for bacteria to grow. The filter runs almost silently and is very energy efficient.
The largest model, the Eheim pickup only uses 6 Watts of power. The carbon sponge which is available for the Eheim pickup is handy, but I think this is best reserved for when you have added medication to the aquarium and need to remove it from the water.
In regular use a carbon sponge is not necessary. Squashing the sponge will make it more dense though and will reduce the flow. This was mainly to speed up the bacteria growth in the filter sponge but i found it worked quite well. I would say that as with most aquarium filters, the capacity is slightly over rated, if i were to use these as the only filters on my little litre tank, I think I would want at least 2 of them on there.
