Looks like an old style bicycle horn with a new finish. Cool though.

According to a few on RC - they've hit US shores...

So who's going to have them first - and at what price in canada? :D

After a bunch of reading and debate between one of these and a Tunze Nano Stream 6045, I finally decided on a Hydor Koralia 4. Nobody is sure when the 6045 was gonna show up in our local stores, and the price point of the Koralia is very attractive.

So I ordered one today from Tropical Fish Outlet (US$44.99 + $8.99 shipping).

Has the same flow but at half the price of the Nano 6045. Supposed to be a bit larger, but more dispersed flow.

I'll be sure to post a brief review once I get it setup later this coming week.

mod
 
there's already a mod tread on RC with the same concept as the Maxijet mods with the racing boat propeller to push 2-3x the normal rated gph
i'll post the tread when i find it again.....

yeah, apparently the maxijet impeller slides right in and of course those maximod boys love to play with the props... Nothing that has to be done of course...

I was reading the "New Koralia Pumps" thread on RC and the majority love them.
According to the thread, They push similar amounts of water to the nano tunze but in a more dispersed manner. Nano was more concentrated and the koralia was wider therefore it did not shoot across the tank as much.

I will be looking for a Canadian distributor if not ordering from a U.S online place. Hopefully you dont get burned too much in the shipping.

hydor pumps
 
They are supercool...I just saw them in action at the Global Pet Expo in Florida (where I am now).

If I could venture a guess, and it would be a fairly educated one, I would say that they will hit stores in 3-4 weeks in Canada

Nate:

Im sure if you buy a bunch, and bring them back, you'll have some early buyers.
Yours truly included. :)

AndyL 02-26-2007 11:30 PM

C'mon nate - bring me back a couple of 4's :) Puhleeeeze! I'll bribe if I have to :lol:

FYI's for those thinking of shipping (2) from us sellers:
Drs Foster smith - 110$ for ground shipping to canada (fedex)
Marine Depot - 38.99$ UPS 3-4 day

Not that I've looked into it or anything...
