It seems like it took forever. Paypal not having my correct info..payments, refunds, pm tag, blah blah blah...anyway thanks to international inc, aka rkc772, my NEW Fluval FX5 is on the way. I've been wanting one of these for a long time. I have other smaller fluvals and am very happy with them. I hope this Monster lives up to my expectations. Wow! I can't wait!
 
If you have any questions about them I'm running several of them....Don't use polishing pads in the center baskets or anything in filter bags....just ceramic rings...

I Clean mine every month and it's obvious for what I take out that I could easilly go twice as long. However polishing pads...extra mechanial pads and media in filter bags cut that WAY down. This is due to the massive water flow...it wont FEEL like it at first but remember we're talking about 1" hose with a dual outlet. I have flow meters on mine and they crank even though the flow SEEMS less than on my 405's
 
LOL NP...oh and don't forget thier one glaring defect.... I move my cans to the fish sink to clean and the FX5 weighs as much as a small import car.....lol

You put 2 gallons of water in it to prime and then when it starts you can watch it lowering the level in a 240 gallon tank....hows that for capacity.
