I heard he is in the Florida panhandle.
Wonder how he did with the storm?

OK, I had seen a short video of that new Theiling a few weeks ago but had not seen it for sale. Looks like they stepped away from aesthetics on this one but I like the price.
500GPH though? I like that it hangs on the side of the sump.
I have to admit, since all of these are so new, it seems the designs on these change every day. I think....in the long run....we will see more designs like GEO become the norm as this is a must have in future sumps. Right now most of the designs are based on incorporating them into what we already have.

How are you Klir owners liking your roller mat? I'm thinking of the 7" version when it comes out

You know what, I like it even if it's not perfect.
The possible simple fix for Coralvue might just be a better fleece manufacturer. It's meet all my needs in terms of easy use, no plumbing or rerouting of drain lines needed and no huge clearance needed in your stand.
It's kept my hands off dirty filter socks and filter cup pads and it's made my DT clearer then the previous filtration methods.

Good to hear. So only complaint is the fleece? How come you don't like the fleece?

The fleece is just a guess on my part, could be the design of the fleece support bracket wall design also. But you can see what I'm referring to back on post 13 of this thread. You can see the uTube link for a 9 sec video.

Once I worked out some (self-induced) issues it has been good. My water is as clear as it's ever been and I'm not blowing through fleece, although I did pick up a few spare rolls. Also, not having to deal with filter socks is great! I built an adapter for mine so if I have any issues it's a minute or two to go back to the socks. I don't expect any issues but it is a new product so I like to have a backup plan.
I haven't had any issues with the fleece but it would be greats if they diversify the product line a bit assuming that the filter is a success. The current fleece is 50 microns, I would like to have the option to choose a 20-25 micron fleece as well.

Mine is working as expected. However, I noticed if the fleece is not perfectly lined up on the roller, it will get stuck on the side of the filter as it advances. There’s not much room for error which is good and bad. Not andeal breaker but I had to unwind mine to line it up perfectly.
Also, it would be nice if they offered different grade fleece options.

Good to hear. Are you guys having the same issue with water escaping like pecan2phat?

Mine doesn't have water coming out the sides like that. I did slow down my flow going through the filter though. When mine gets clogged, you do see a water start to build up towards the top of the waterline and coming through the filter. Once the fleece advances, I don't see any surge coming out the top of the fleece where the water line is.
I only have 5 chromis in my tank at the moment so my bioload is light. I plan to add a fish next week now that my cycle has completed.
I'll update in a few weeks if there's any negative outcome from increased bioload.

Hi from across the pond.
I run a X filter, launched by a c9mpany called innovitech. I'm running it on a 235g tank.
Their bigger version 1.7 will easily run systems around 600g.

Thanks for the heads up. I was considering the Clearisea. Looks well built but looks can be deceiving!
I'll wait for the bugs to be worked before I buy the KLIR. I like the KLIR simply because it drops into you filter sock holder.

Just for another point of view, I've run a Clarisea SK-5000 since early December. I have had absolutely zero issues with it and would highly recommend it. I've used filter socks; I've used no sock.
-My issue with filter socks is I don't change them every few days - causing the waste to simply breakdown in my sock. I also hated washing them.
-My issue with no socks is the crud builds up in my sump, and breaks down there.
Now, whenever I hear the Clarisea roller advance - from the comfort of my couch - I smile.
