When I started my reef in 2001 the first two ph's I bought were Hagen's. I just removed them recently after a tank upgrade. 5+ years and never a problem. I'll still be using them in a new qt tank. In the same time period I went threw 4 Maxi-Jets and I don't know how many MJ impellers.

Personally, I'd recommend a Maxijet purchase over an AC powerhead anyday.

Dang Murray, that sucks. Hopefully your tank will bounce back.
I also have had nothing but problems with AC powerheads. I now use Seios, Tunzes, & Maxijets. On the other hand, I love the AC power filters for their sheer reliability & ease of use. Anthony

Anyone see the new tunze streams (the nanostream pumps)?

Oh man the Nanostreams are the sweetest little things, especially the 6055 which is controllable.
BTW Bev, a good anemone protection technique for Tunze Streams is the Stream Rock. http://www.jlaquatics.com/phpstore/s..._ID=tz-ztsrock

fkshiu,
Gadzooks! That fake rock is $90   Doesn't look particularly anemome-proof to me, considering anemones' feet like to grab under rock. I think I'm gonna pass on that one.

I wouldn't recommend Seio for restarts after the pwr goes out.I have to slap my Seio's to restart it.Can't complain about the flow.I have a couple Seio's and a couple MJ1200.The MJ restarts every time.

I have 4 tunzes running on my systems and have never had one fail to re-start after a power outage (and I live in a rural area where the power goes out fairly frequently) nor have I ever had an anemone have a run in with one - and I have 5 anemones - 2 RBTA, 1 GBTA, 1 Seabae and one Green Carpet. I do have my Tunzes positioned quite high in the tank using the magnet holders.
I do have a hagen power head in my 10g nano that always has to be jiggled after the power goes out.
