Looks like yet another high flow low wattage pump. The market should be flooded with them soon.

Prices should be about the same for you. Hydor stuff is made in Italy so it really depends on your exhange rate with the Euro.

After all the trouble I have heard about the nano streams. I will have to agree with FW and let everyone else test them out.

I have heard there is a vibration problem because of the magnet mounts. Also the impeller shaft is coming loose.

Just an FYI, I've read that the new Koralia's have a magnetic/suction mount. I would assume that will cut down on the vibration.
But we all know what happens when we assume.
