Title: Penguin Needs To Redesign Their Impellers
Review: I had this power filter running in my 16 gallon saltwater reef tank for about a month, and the impeller shaft got scarred by debris and became extremely noisy. This exact same thing happened to my Penguin 660R powerhead after less than 3 months in the same tank. Let me tell you, this is not a dirty tank that should have these problems, it is a crystal-clear reef tank. Penguin products just are not made to last. Which is really lame, because Marineland also makes Emperor products, which last a lot longer and are much better designed. You get what you pay for in aquariums, and it's definitely worth putting out the money for a better powerhead or filter up front, so you don't have to pay more to replace the cheap product later on anyway.I replaced my Penguin Bio-Wheel with an Emperor 280 and now I have just ordered a Hydor Koralia Nano to replace my Penguin powerhead.Do yourself a favor and just buy a better product from the beginning.
