Can't get the link to work. So I copied this from reef builders dot com

The High Seas Prop Pump aka Sun Sun pump from Coralvue can’t decide whether it is aping a Hydor Korallia, Tunze Nano Stream or both. It’s no surprise then that the cheaply made Chinese product has been recalled in Canada due to a couple reports of electrocution. We first wrote about the High Seas Prop pump at the Midwest Frag Fest where they sported some ridiculously cheap retail pricing. In less than six months, the pumps have caused enough problems to be recalled in Canada and if problems arise in the US we could see an American recall as well.tim-marks-sun-pump-1 If you’ve recently purchased some ridiculously cheap propeller style water pump that came in barely labeled white boxes, we suggest you give the pumps a very thorough examination and maybe pull out the old voltmeter to see if they are already leaking electrons into your tank. We spoke with an undercover EcoTech Marine operative who foresaw the potential problems with the Coralvue pump when they were displayed at MACNA and it was suggested that they might be better re purposed as rotoscopic binoculars.
