AquaMaxx HOB-1 ETA

3-6 month ETA?
what's the deal?
Thanks

Thank you for your patience. The overwhelming popularity of the HOB-1 has made it extremely difficult to keep in stock. However, the good news is we heard from AquaMaxx our next shipment should arrive the week of 6/16 and it will contain 167 HOB-1's. We'll be able to fulfill all current backorders and even have some leftover for sale.
 
Great thanks.
Since these seem hard to get at this point I have been looking at the HOB-XC...I may spring for extra few bucks if it is that much better...I really need something very quiet as my DT is in the living room.
 
AquaMaxx HOB-1 vs. HOB-XC

AquaMaxx HOB-1 vs. HOB-XC

In your opinion is the HOB-XC more quiet than the HOB-1?

They're really about the same. Neither are especially loud, so it's difficult to distinguish one as being the louder of the two when neither struck us as being particularly loud. I think you'd be fine with either choice. The HOB-XC is capable of skimming a larger tank and also has a designated heater chamber to save you some tank space, so those are a couple of advantages to take into consideration. The HOB-1, on the other hand, is a proven workhorse nobody really complains about... so it's got a reputation for performance and reliability. AquaMaxx upgraded a few of the components recently to make it even better. Tough choice, but either skimmer would serve you well, in our opinion.
