ive yet to find one that IS UL listed.. but think of it this way... original gameboy was also not UL listed and millions of children had them (ive still got one and its less than 5 feet away and still works great)... plug it into a GFI outlet and call it a day..

at the moment ive got a........ 828?.. i think...
the disconnects are total crap and i highly reccomend NOT adjusting the hose directions more than you need to.. mine leaks.. or well.. did before i siliconed the crap out of everything... at the same time i got it used and paid less than $40 for it.. the only place ive found replacement parts is on ebay (the seller is local so that works well)... im not sure what its rated for.. ive got it on a 40gallon at its doing a great job... ive got a wad of sponge over the outlet so my theory is that im never going to have to clean it.. we will see how that goes...

I've been looking for a while and prices are really hiking up. Other than the fact that everything is going up, I don't get why pet stuff is suddenly a fortune.

That's exactly why I REALLY wish I had picked up the Fluval back when it was $75. I keep thinking maybe I should just wait until there's a good deal going, but at the same time, I keep thinking what if prices keep going up. Everything's been going up so much, and I don't want to find out in a year I can't afford a decent product at all. . .

And thats exactly why I got an FX5 when they were 200. Also I got my ac110 late and ended up paying 70 for it on goddamn "sale"
 
sorry, I don't have any great deals for you, but if you find something cheap anywhere, be sure and print it out, even if you don't need it at the time. most Petsmarts will price match from websites (not straight from e-bay, of course). I can still get XP3's there for $105, Penguin 350's for $27 and AC110's for the cheap price DrF&S had them for. Make sure you make a copy as they started keeping all the pricematch printouts.
 
Thanks for the heads up on that Eheim. That's a good deal, but it makes me nervous that it's coming from Israel. I don't like dealing with overseas companies. And the filter it shows on the package isn't the 2217- the 2217 doesn't come with a base like that, and is thicker than the filter shown in the pic.

And yeah, I paid $135 for my 2217 from Foster & Smith. So, $50+$35 shipping is MUCH better than that.
 
yeah i would be nervous about that too, but at least through ebay, you can't get screwed, they do protect you very well as long as you keep documentation.
