[dhnguyen]

Sweet... I will definitely chalk it down. Thanks

Yea, i'm getting a original D maximod in the next couple days. can't wait to see how it performs vs the eco and sureflow. having two surfow's is tough for a 125g with a dsb. Well not nearly as tough as a koralia 4! D knows i'm jk man.

 

[dhnguyen]

No worries Luke we're all friends here.

Anyone else getting rust on their ecomod shafts?

 

[dhnguyen]

Hmm rust is a sign that the stainless steel used is of lower grade.
How bad is the rust?

 

[USC-fan]

not too bad but this pump is only used for mixing salt water a couple of times. I going to check out the one that been running in my tank for 2 weeks tomorrow.

 

[wingmans10]

Yes, a small amount of rust around each end on the exposed shaft next to the rubber mounts on the eco mods. will probly convert it to a carbon fiber shaft soon.

 

[USC-fan]

well this sucks.... I GOT 2 OF THESE WORTHLESS ECOMODS!!!!

 

[pelochas]

USC

why a sudden change in opinion on the ecomods eight hours ago?

 

[USC-fan]

Because both my shafts are starting to rust and now someone else is having this same problem.....I would bet everyone that is running these kits will have this problem.

I spent $40 on these kits and shouldn't have to worry about this problem. Also its strange how www.ecosystemaquarium.com took these kits off their website.....

 

[Rick2203]

wow im glad i went with the sureflow, for the price i cannot complain

 

[wingmans10]

Any rust problems thus far for the folks using the sureflow? Glad I have 2 of them showing up on monday =-)

 

[Rick2203]

i have had no problems, mines is silent, only chatters sometimes on startup but its pretty much perfect.

i take this back. its all pvc, plastic, or rubber parts and the steel rod doesnt show signs of rust for me.

that stainless steel rod probably wasnt of the best materials, so it will rust a lil. the better rust resistant stainless steel rod will probably cost a lil more. i really dont know what the facts are but im glad i went with the sureflow which are doing well and from a good company.

btw, that lil rust isnt going to hurt anything but always safer than sorry to remove it and look for replacement or refund.

The rust may not be a problem now but it will end up breaking. Plus doesn't rust fuel algae by leaching iron?
