Would buy again now that I know what to expect

Update: Upgraded to 5 stars because I realized the water filled UV chamber was my fault. The 3rd basket was installed incorrectly, causing the pipe to bulge slightly. It also appears that the flow has improved significantly even with the 16 inch carbon dioxide reactor in the return line. He burps from time to time, but no worse than others I've seen. However, I also switched the filter media to a black/green and blue sponge in the bottom basket, a matrix in the middle to half the originalโ€ฆ

Decent filter seems much lower than 793 gph

I have replaced the SunSun HW-404B with this new model as the fans in my previous unit have almost disappeared in the last 3 years. Setting up this new one was very easy, and removing the main knob and adding separate intake and exhaust valves is a nice touch. This makes refilling very easy. Both the input and output nodes in this device are much better than in their older models. The ability to run at different speeds and set the UV light on a schedule were much-needed features, so they'reโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Nothing here

A good product. rough experience.

First of all, now that the filter is working, I'm happy with it. I only gave it three stars based on everything going on around the filter. First of all, there were no instructions in my box. I've tried finding a PDF version online and haven't had much luck so far. Luckily, there are videos on YouTube that show you the whole process. All the necessary parts were in the box but there were two broken prongs on the skimmer component. I put it aside and decided to order a replacement, but I can'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Pretty good after a few weeks

I really like this canister filter. I use it in a greenhouse for a koi aquarium. It's pretty quiet here, although I wouldn't mind if it wasn't because it's almost outside. The electronic controller built into it is pretty cool: you can control the power of the pump, and it has a timer for the UV lamp so it doesn't run 24/7 like my underground pond should last longer. I work 2 hours a day with no problems even though the fish has only been loaded for a couple of weeks. The control screen isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • I'm worried
