FYI - NOT impressed with the Hydor

I just installed the new Hydor (mini scwd). I am NOT impressed. I put it on a MaxiJet 600 in my 16G nano, and it totally cut down the flow (not that I didn't expect that, but I mean a lot!) The gear mechanism is pretty cool, but if you want to use one of these I would recommend doubling (at least) the powerhead size you are currently using. I have removed it, and will trade it for a frag if someone wants, otherwise it will make a nice desk ornament for me. :cool:
 
I put one on a maxi jet 1200 in my 40 gal breeder frag tank, and while it did cut down on the flow some...I feel the added water movement was well worth the investment.
 
I'll swap you a frag for it next meeting.

I have more zoo frags as well as some small sps also.
