Finally this PHS are in the US. IMO they dont look as well built as i originally imaginedt, anyways i believe its still a good alternative to other more expensive ph's.

was thinking of buyin one to try it but i dont know if they are reliable or not. just saw them on dr.fostersmith.com

Hey I think I will give #4 a shot 1200GPH seems like a nice boost over my current MJ 900. It puts it in the same price as MJ mod and I really like the look and flex mount.

nyvp · 01/16/2007, 03:36 PM

they look huge

ninjamini · 01/16/2007, 03:58 PM

What it does not tell you is if that measurement includes the mount. My MJ is prob that big.

Koralia 1 400 gph 3.5 2-1/4" x 5"
Koralia 2 600 gph 4.5 2-7/8" x 5-7/8"
Koralia 3 850 gph 6.5 2-7/8" x 5-7/8"
Koralia 4 1,200 gph 8.5 3-1/4" x 6-1/4"

that's because they r huge LOL

rawbomb · 01/16/2007, 08:54 PM

i think im gonna get me 1 to see how they are. anyone figure out if they are controllable.

Rogger Castells · 01/17/2007, 12:39 AM

Cool, let us know when you get them, I will like to see one working

Ryanqk · 01/18/2007, 12:05 PM

i use a couple regular hydor rotating deflectors in my 30gl and they are awesome but when i upgrade they will be too weak, maybe this new hydor will be better for my new 65 i love the sweeping motion and my corals really like it too.
only problem i have with them is they are a bit bulky.

Ryan,

I might be wrong but I don't think the new Hydor Korallias actually rotates like their Hydor Rotating Deflectors do.

gasman059 · 01/18/2007, 07:54 PM

Maybe they r not as big as i originally imagined.

those are really cool, a lot smaller than they look in the first pic.

gasman059 · 01/18/2007, 08:18 PM

agree will wait and c- I really tought they were bigger. Lots of people are getting this phs and testing them . will c how it goes

jessp · 01/18/2007, 08:21 PM

they are cheap as well, hopefully the prices won't skyrocket if they work well.

do they sell a controller for them?

xinumaster · 01/18/2007, 08:24 PM

They're 110v AC ph so I think the seio controller will work or you can buy this too http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merch...ode=Wavemaking
