Hydor Korilia?

tanku · 02/19/2007, 04:20 PM

does anybody use the hydor korilia powerhead? I f so, how do you like it. the price is good for a performance powerhead.

SHAWNLX86 · 02/19/2007, 04:45 PM

I have the #1 model in a 40 gal. qt, works great for the money. my tank is 18"deep x 16" tall and the spread of current hits all 4 sides unlike traditional ph's.

They are awesome! I doubt you would be unhappy with the flow these pumps generate.

Quiet, low energy consumption (thus low heat production).

Cheers,
John

would two Koralia 1's be good enough for my 29g? I was thinking of getting the 2's but I would like to keep the size of the powerhead as small as i can because I have limited space. Regardless, either will produce more flow then the two MJ900's I have in there now.

seagirl · 02/19/2007, 05:10 PM

i am thinkng about putting 2 of the #4's in a 75gal myself so i'm gonna tag along and see if anyone is using these and if they are happy.

Beenalongtime79 · 02/19/2007, 05:25 PM

got two 4s... work great. Still working great.

Very happy.

can i ask what size tank you have them in?

Beenalongtime79 · 02/19/2007, 05:58 PM

60 gallon cube. Actually, too much flow for my small tank. Two 3's will probably be good for you. Possibly two 4's if you keep SPS and are barebottom.

If you have sand, I'd go with the two 3's.

Cheers,

I am looking to buy 2 #4's for my 150. I had orderd from Champion lighting... https://www.championlighting.com but they never shipped them. No, my credit card was not charged, but they claim that they are out of stock. The website does not mention that. It took me almost 2 weeks to finally cancel the order. Gary at champion gives me the impression that he does not care about his customers' orders since he does not follow up up with calls and/or emails. Does anyone know who has them in stock? They seem to be a great new product.

thanks, it is bb, and i want to kep some sps so i'll try the 4's. I appreciate the help

I will have to try one out, look's like some one took the idea of the maxi jet mod and designed a whole new power head.

bergzy · 02/19/2007, 07:17 PM

i have two no 4's pointing at each other on the opposite ends.

incredible flow for the money, fairly attractive housing (much more finished look than mj mods...one can only have so much rough diy in the main display).

i am very happy with them and the create a very wide flow...a little powerful right at the source but disperses nicely throughout the tank.

i see the powerful turbulence right at the middle of the tank where the two collide for more random water motion.

with the included magnetic holder...an improved product over seio's.

regular tunze streams are too big for my taste and liking...i do have a nano stream!

sandman12 · 02/19/2007, 07:18 PM

What does everyone think about the 400gph one in a 15g?

tgcreef · 02/19/2007, 07:27 PM
