bulldogod Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 of those tanks like jebo, and sunsun, anyone heard of these, they sell on TM. The ones with built in lights and filters in the lid? are the filters any good. Im thinking of getting one and just wanted some feedback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmchick Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I have a sunsun and its great..........except for the filter :evil: :evil: Lights are good, its easy to maintain but the filter only lasted approx 4 months before I ditched it and went for a cannister. You get a lot of condensation dripping down the front of the tank when you open the hood but I think you will get that with most of the hooded tanks.

Keri Anne Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 My first tank was a Jebo R-362 and it is great!! It's the only tank my Boyfriend will let me keep in the living room. Very quiet, easy to clean. The only issue I've erve had with it was that the lid (for feeding etc) wouldn't stay up by itself. That was easy to fix though (I just broke the hinges and now I can take it off compleatly.) Cheers, KA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get a lot of condensation dripping down the front of the tank when you open the hood but I think you will get that with most of the hooded tanks. I also have a Sunsun 1000mm, all of the above applies, although I think the filters are good good for the amount of filtration provided. My tank is around 200L, the factory filter is rated at 900L/hr which is ok, I have added a CF1000 canister filter (the hood item still running) & the water is so clear it doesn't look like there is any in the tank. Also the value of a Sunsun setup was les than half the cost of an aquaone unit & IMO the alloy hoods are much better than the plastic aquaone items.

bOi Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 those tanks are good. but ive heard many times of issues with the filters. And most of them end up with either 2 filtration or just added a new canister filter. and yeah you get the occasional drips-off-the-lid syndrome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldogod Posted October 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 cool, thanks for the feedback, I wasnt sure about sunsun as they are quite cheap so thought they mite be crap but sounds like they are ok, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
