New filter, any good?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I say save the $$$ and get a Aquaclear 110, it does 500gph. I have 2 and am very pleased with them but beware, the first 1-3 weeks they make a terrible grinding sound and every time you unplug the filter it starts the grinding again.
 
that canister filter looks like this JBJ Reaction 4 stage with built in U.V sterilizer. looks identical to this...except it's silver.

good idea but 2 aq110 wont be enough for a 265 gallon

Im really really really thinking about buying one of these things.....
 
If your gonna do a sump great.
If your gonna do a canister go with fx-5. You won't be sorry.;)
I run many of them. I have 3 on my 265g and they are hand's down the best filters I have ever bought.
