"H.O.T. Magnum = J.U.N.K." |
As much as I love my C-series canisters, I think Marineland is producing garbage when it comes to the Magnum series. They may have been okay 15-20 years ago, or whenever they were the latest and greatest, but they are WAY outdated now. My H.O.T. magnum made a pretty good gravel vac, but now that I have sand in all my tanks, it is completely useless to me. Save some money and just buy an Aquaclear hob filter. A $30 AC70 is more effective than the entire H.O.T. Magnum bio-pro system I have. Here’s why it sucks: - With the bio wheel attachment in place, it takes up quite a bit of space on the back of the tank. - A lot of space is required behind the tank for clearance. - It is a wet pain in the rear to prime, and it does NOT self prime whatsoever. - The bio-wheel is noisy - The media container inside the canister is too small too be of much use for anything, and it is a hassle to clean out. - There are many parts to deal with whenever you clean it. - Unlike other canisters, the impeller is easily seized up by a couple of grains of sand. - The O-rings on the intake and outlet tubes swell over time, making for a ridiculously tight fit. |
