automation with Filter roller in African Cichlids tank?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
thats
I havnt used one personally but am researching them aswel
The main options are
Klr filter roller
Theling roller
clarisea sk5000

all of them work but I’ve heard mixed reviews on the klr.
you may need to check which ones you could fit in your sump depending on how far you are willing to go with modifications to it.

I personally am leaning towards the Clarissa however that’s the only one readily available near me

as i promised, i am back for some review after i got the sk5000 up and running
the cuts of the acrylic plates are questionable, you may or may not need to force them in place.
the quality of the acrylic screws is also questionable, i broke one as i am installing the extension arm.
so far i am satisfied with the product, just wish i don't have the installed it, i am a big fan of building stuff, not so much building stuff with bad fitting. could just be a bad unit. and the metric fitting is a pain, you might want to get a metric to the imperial PVC fitting

one thing to pay attention to, if you have snails in your sump as i do.... it could potentially cause issues. there is more than one occasion i saw these critters crawling near/on the flow switch had me worried. although i should be fine due to all the protection alarm that comes with this model

anyway good luck with your project
