I'm really sad to hear you guys have had such crappy experiences with Fluval's 306. I tend to buy a lot of my stuff based on brand loyalty and I gladly pay more for quality equipment. Sounds like Fluval kinda crapped the bed?
Definitely not wasting time. Nope.
I was going to ask if these units are self leveling (floating head) but it turns out that the are. Nice!
Bad experience with a 206 here. First one leaked (I think the shipping box was used in a punt, pass, & kick contest) and the second one made an audible humming noise that made me go back to HOBs. Sunsun looks like a viable option though.

I can say this abt cannisters ive owned. I love my fluvals from the 306 to my many fx6. I equally like my sun sun's. I usually run 2 per tank. A fluv and a sun sun. I keep only bio rocks in 1. All other media in the 2nd. It seems to help flow and adds alot more bio media surface space. I say that to say this. Ive had issues described here with all but 1 cannister i had ordered and delivered (fluvs and suns). Ive had only 1 issue with cannisters ive gotten in store (a fluv seal). With the store bought issue, i just walked in and had it fixed instantly. The ordered ones were a hassle to get replaced. Ive noticed a trend in complaints abt cannisters ordered online. Im starting to wonder if its like how walmart selks so cheap? If you go to a hardware store and buy a drill, odds are you can get the same drill at wal mart cheaper. What most dont know is the reason. Its not just buying power either. Its that the drill from Hardware store is grade A or B. Wal mary buys grade C and below (even refurbished) at a substantially reduced bulk rate. Hence the savings. Just wondering if anyone has noticed an uptick in this with filters or other fish supplies coming delivered from bulk online stores?

Wal-Mart is the devil incarnate!
20L Mafia...
That's too clean to be a jungle. Been watching the rotala wallichii; maybe I will give it another go...it's been a year.
At first glance I thought I saw dual fluorescent bulbs but realized it was the spray bar and its reflection. You could go over that with black Krylon for plastic (pretty sure it's non-toxic) or any safe spray paint. Sorry, I try to look away but my eyes are drawn to it.

The Rotala wallichii looks much nicer than my attempt at them. So clean!
