So the manufacturer's claim that the controller will not work with any other type of pump is incorrect? Just wondering. I just picked up 3 Koralias and would love to have two of them controllable.

Any suggestions on how many to buy for a 29g with mostly sps and some btas with 3 small fish? Are two #2s too much?

k1 would give you 13x turnover per hour or 400gph
k2 would give you 20x turnover per hour or 600gph
and anyone of these would be good, if you like a low/med flow get the k1 or if you prefer a med/high get the k2, depends on which sps you have.

I bought a #4 at local reef store for $49.95 yesterday evening. I set it up in my 125 gallon and it works great. Quiet!!! Looks good, too.
I will buy another this weekend.
For me, it is full speed ahead on these pumps!

From one of the other threads looks like problem with the housing not sealing properly and causing a risk of shock. I remember one of those threads was started by someone who got zapped by theirs. Not sure if that is the whole reason for the recall though.
I just ordered a 1 and 2, but the 2 is backordered for another week or so. Guess it won't be one of the affected lots.

I've had mine for about a month, constantly on, and they're as silent as ever. The magnet's grip also seems to get stronger the longer you leave it in place. I love my Koralias so far.

I'm still waiting on my replacements... Looking at the Drs. website, it looks like they're backordered again until 3/19. I'm hoping mine isn't one of those, but the fact that it hasn't arrived yet and I've received no shipping confirmation makes me think I'll be waiting another week and a half for my new K3s to get here. I've had it with the noise.

OK, I have a 150 gallon reef. Currently have SIX MaxiJet 1200s with Hydor flows on them. I REALLY want to get some (if not all of these) out of my tank.
Do you guys think two of the K4s would be enough for my tank? And where would be the optimal placement for them? My tank is a 6' long rectangular tank.
Thanks!

I just ordered 2 #4s for my 115 from 123fish.net (thanks for the tip). I found the price with shipping to be about the same as DrF&S with the coupon and the sale price. Plus they seem to have them in stock. I am in no hurry if not. Plus I ordered 2 mj mod kits from MJmods.com. Not sure how I will implement all this yet but I have time.
Plus I read that thread attacking DrF&S on the change in pricing. I think the complaining was unnecessary. F&S were not the only ones who raised their prices. If you don't like it, shop somewhere else. Sorry I went off topic.
Thanks for this thread guys I find it very interesting.
