That price though puts it in the same range as the Vortec, and Tunze.

Any ideas how it might stack up against the Vortec or the Tunze?

Just curious... the high price tag causes me to wonder

I don't know if there is really any way to know until they hit the street and people start to use them. I'm hoping that if they are in the price range, they will be in the same feature class. The real question that won't be answered for a while is how well they stand up to long term use. Looks like we can only wait and see what comes out, and what it can really do.

I wonder when they will be out?

They sound like they will be great for larger systems.

You can always glue two seio's back to back and buy a controller.... or maybe they will release polario someday.... my bet is on glueing lol...been waiting since '06

I have given up on the product. I have been emailing them and all I get in return is " It will be out soon" what a joke.

So whats up with this thing?

TulsaReefer · 06/30/2008, 07:01 PM

I've read that they have it in beta testing and that it is actually very close to release. I saw it listed in the "ThatFishPlace" print catalog that came a few weeks ago to my house, and it wasn't an ad this time, it was a product with a price and a product number. Online their site shows it "out of stock", but they do list their price, 298.99 for the 3500 gph unit, and 362.99 for the 5000 gph unit.

Does anyone have this product yet? If so how well does it work? I am in the process of building a 270g 72''x36''x24''. I was thinking about putting one of these on the middle back of the tank to keep water moving more in the back of the tank.

No it took so long for it to come out everyone forgot and or lost interest, this thread has been dead for awhile.
