in the uk they are selling for about 279.00 pounds
here in canada they go for $359.00 there or abouts should have bought one when they came on sale at super pets for $246.00 ,don't know how much in the US knock a hundred off i guess and i think big als is selling them in the states i really want to know if they work better then they look imo they look like a toy. but then again i feel the same way about all off the shelf filters even the eheims i have are cheaply constructed.
