Pros & Cons
Pros
Get this one and save some money for coral. It is easy to pull apart when time to change the bulbs and they are at a fraction of the price of other filters. The only thing you need to be careful of is the glass site.
Cons
Inlet and outlet holes are severely restricted by 90 degree turns right inside the port and restricting my 1000gph pump by half. I the uv filter works great but the other issues negate that.
Highlights
Quality
5ft deep we use 2 of these one on the biofilter we built and we use thr other on the opposite side attached to multiple water falls
I had an icp test done after i had the small one running on the tank for 8 months and everything came back fine so no leaching of anything
We have expanded from a lowes premade liner to actual pond liner 7ft x 4ft and 3
Hand tighten it softly just snug and make sure the seal does not push inward or it will leak you can see it through the glass

Do not tighten it all the way or it will push the o ring seal inward
