I don't think he meant to be sarcastic. OSHA and Food and Drug Administration do not regulate the pet/aquarium industry unless the product can affect human health or safety. Neither do Consumer Report test on aquarium products. So vendors can exaggerate and make false claims on what their products can do.
Lol "he" is the one who posted it. Definite sarcasm ....

Tiger's complaints about a canister is unrealistic to some degree. Yes, everything he says can and has happened to many people. But let's stop and think about how many things in your home, and in your car have the same, or close to the same, o-rings and clamps. Do we not use those things because danger is always around the corner and so is the failure of said components? Lets get real here.....Human error is inherently the most problematic thing out of anything mechanical in this world. And I'm guilty of that myself, we all are. And if you say you aren't then you're lying. We've all made mistakes that make our things look bad from our opinion of making a mistake and not owning up to it. The difference in a real person (man or woman) is admitting the faults and learning from them to not make the same mistake again.
I've had plenty of errors on my behalf that have sent tens of gallons into my home. But I have a shop vac and towels and know how to clean it up and I don't mind hard work what so ever. My FX5 (used) came with a hose so that I could use the flush for a quick clean at the bottom. I never use it. I take it apart and clean it manually as needed. I pick it up and take it out side.
