EMPEROR 400 - BAD START

[Slippery K]

Cut it down to size. Did that for my E-400's.

Lol, should've gone with the AquaClear110's I prefer them over emperor 400s

It is not usual for parts to be missing from a NEW filter so hopefully you will receive the parts you are missing. Is it possible they fell out when you were removing the filter from the box?

Just a quick question for you regarding voltage. I thought Australia uses 240V 50 Hertz for household power supply. What do you plan to do for the U.S. conversion from 110V 60 Hertz?

400's are awesome and they are real work horses.; As far as missing parts, I think it happens to the best of them!

I will be needing a voltage converter . That should do it? Also, they company has shipped out two brand new 400's due to the bearings missing on the previous ones !

So did it work out cheaper getting them imported rather then going with the fluvals or ACs? Looking at a HOB but our range down here is some what limited lol.

yep much cheaper. i got both emperor 400s for $151 with shipping! in aus they are not available...here its mostly aqua one stuff that are over priced. also... fluvals are around $300+ ...i knew i would need high filtration for two oscars in my 60 gallon...so i chose emperor...price was better than fluval and two 400s would most likely clean better than one cannister.

I have never heard of anyone complain about missing parts on an Emperor filter before. When I bought my Emperor 400 about 10 years ago it came with all its parts. It ran great for a long .

10 yrs ago is a long time. Marineland got bought out by another company. Ever since their quality control went down. My buddy receive a brand new crack filter. They are great filter when it works. My emp is over 10 yrs old and still works good.

Not bad, you can get the fluval and acs for a little more here but the mag looks nice and big!!
