Has anybody tried these out yet...they certainly look like a cheaper alternative to those Tunze's and at that price who could resist.

Those look pretty cool. Haven't heard of them before, though.

It looks like pretty much the same thing. Ive been looking at the larger nano streams but those are almost half the price. Let me know how you like them!

Re: Has anybody seen these yet?

I've heard bad things about the build quality of them. Someone i know had one literally fall apart in his hands at MACNA. We are still going to be getting some where I work to test out before we carry them so i'll post with how they hold up after they've been in use a while.

Re: Has anybody seen these yet?

I cant help you with that. Maybe someone else could answer. Seems like I've read anywhere from 4x to 10x water flow, and lots of the softies prefer moderate current but I think some of the LPS like a little more.
