Hi guys, I have a chance to get a 2 Sunsun filters with uv or a Marineland Magnum 350 Pro with a separate uv. Which is the better deal, both are new and about the same price. The Magnum is with my employee discount and the Sunsun is online. Tank will be a 55 gallon planted SA community.
 
I have 3 Sunsun canisters and really like them. I don't use the uv, but mech/bio filtration is good. They are super quiet. It comes with a heavy duty hoses, but the intake/return could be made a bit stronger. Priming can be a bit of a pia. No problems with mine at all, so I highly recommend these......especially for the price.
 
The plastic could be a tad thicker but its not flimsy or anything. I've moved my around cleaning it and stuff and it feels sturdy enough. I've only had mine since this past summer, but Jc1119 has been running his for about 2 years now.
