HaNs Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Anyone got this filter? What do you think about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faran Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I've owned mine for over a year now. My original was a perfect running machine and quiet as a mouse. I had a small problem with a lid fastener getting stuck when I did filter maintenance 6 months later and the agent replaced the entire thing with another unit. Had a few issues with the new unit while it was "breaking in" but it's been running smooth-as since a month after I got it. These units have simplified my water changes tremendously and I recommend them fully. The flow rate is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaNs Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 What media did it come with? What media are you running? what did the media cost? Do you have "messy" fish? Do you vac your tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil_elmo Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 i have two of them, they dont come with media, so i bought some of the ehiem ball media havent had any trouble with both of them, only thing i found is that the polishing pads they make for them gets clogged very quickly and it makes the output very slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navarre Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Hi Ihave had mine for a year or so now as well and it is very good. A simple and effective filter that works well. I was a bit disapointed tho that for the price they do not come with any media. HTH Navarre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Are the polishing pads extras that can be purchased separately or are they an integral part of the filter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
