The Other Guys

Just curious if anyone else have used or currently use other brands of filters. Besides the big name brands (Hagen, Rena, Eheim), what do you have?
How are they running?
Any issues?

I use generic whole house filter housings and generic NSF rated cartridges and have never had an issue.

This may be a big name brand, but i'm using a marineland c220 on a ten gallon planted tank. I've never used a canister filter before, but I'm not impressed with this one. It was used so i guess I should be happy it works, but i wouldn't use this on anything more than a twenty gallon and it's rated for 50

Just listing what you're using won't help people decice if they're worth trying... tell us your opinion on them.

Cascade canisters on all my tanks. Personally, they seem to work perfectly, for my situation. I also run Zoo Med canisters on some of my smaller tanks. Price and quality are both right for me on both units.

I've heard of these and was always curious about them. How are they running?

Aquaone canisters.

How's that going for you?

Bump?
Kind of curious about product reviews of other filters.

I bought a JBJ Reaction 4 Stage with UV Sterilizer about 4 months ago. It works great.

Good, sorry, i wouldnt of posted it if it were a dud!!!!
I also have a 2000Lph internal thru these guys but the unit is too heavy and the suction caps give way and it always ends up on the bottom of the tank
