The X-Men would be happy to see these evolutionary mutations, and so am I. The inclusion of features that add to the design can only be a good thing, and I hope to see this line of thinking stretched to encompass more products. Evolution and not revolution indeed! According to the store’s return policy, the following guidelines should be followed for returning goods: So as I bought my girlfriend a Fluval U2 filter to replace this Stingray 15 on her tank and all has gone well with that filter, I was looking at buying a Fluval U1 filter for my tank (40L).

So what’s changed? The first ‘tweak’ appears minor, but is actually essential. A tag on the front of the filters, as soon as you extract them from their boxes, shows you how to remove the impeller and give it a clean. If the pictures are confusing, then you can always scan the QR code instead, and watch a video about it. Accessing the impeller for maintenance is a doddle. Notification of Faulty Goods: Customers must notify the store within 7 working days if they receive faulty goods. This notification should be made as soon as possible.

Replacement of Glass or Ceramic Items: Glass or ceramic items can only be replaced if the store is notified within 48 hours of receiving the delivery.Overall I am somewhat disappointed in this filter, being less powerful and reliable than I had anticipated. The look of it is quite nice from the stingray filter I previously had, although it doesn't help when my cycle almost stops due to the filter inability to maintain output. Over time I seem to recall occasionally running across little tall vertical glass box "sit-besides" and I've seen a few very small external cannister systems, but unfortunately I've not captured any info on these and saved it (always feel the need to get better at that!) Perhaps others will come along that remember some of these other types. Perhaps there are some companies out there making fancy nano-planted-tank equipment who might have some nice stuff, albeit expensive.

They are simple and easy to set up, they sit just inside the aquarium itself meaning they can be easily installed into any fish tank, with no troublesome pipes and hoses. They will also work well as a powerhead for water circulation, with the added bonus of the extra filtration. It is worth noting that you should clean your filters impellor every couple of weeks to ensure it is functioning normally and keeping the water moving around the tank. U series underwater filters offer superior water purification, movement and aeration capabilities and have been designed for use in both fresh and saltwater applications. The Stingray is plagued with problems and it seems that if I just look at the filter something goes wrong with it. I've had to take it apart and mess around with the motor/impeller about 5 times in the last week as the case doesn't seal properly from brand new and allows sand/plant and other debris to enter the filter by bypassing the sponges.
