Fragile in what way? Like if they get bumped or...

I recently sold my vortech. I was caught up in all the hype and had to have one about 3 months ago. Was over it in about a week and was very dissapointed in the excessive hum (especially in pulse mode) that it creates and the unsilghty black propeller stuck to the side of my tank just made me dislike this item even more. And to top it off I most defintly dont want to spend the hundreds if not thousands of dollars it would be to create enough flow in my new 210g tank with the vortechs. Overall I think this product has many cool features and looks cool in the box but has some heavy cons which outweigh the pros.

Old Korallias for now, thinking about a tunze wavebox for the new tank. A little bulky but atleast they are quiet.

Just the time of the year also, most people are upgrading, some are shutting down.
