Review on 🐟 OASE Filtosmart Thermo 200 Indoor Aquatics, Black by Andrea Young

I'm in love with Oasis Biomasters, but I need something with a much smaller exterior to hide behind a 15 gallon live pond. Went with the Filtosmart 100 due to size. Setup of the unit itself wasn't too bad, but for some reason the supplied hose does NOT attach properly to the inlet and outlet ports. Screwing in the blue connectors only means that the hose is removed and not fixed. This is NOT a problem with Biomaster. I've been using plumber's tape for now, but I'm very concerned about this as a long-term solution. Maybe I'll buy another pipe or get some lily pipes, I'm not sure yet. Otherwise the block itself seems fine? It takes a little getting used to, compared to the simplicity of the larger Oases, and the lack of a start button is a hassle to set up, but once I fix the tube issue everything should work fine.
