Friday morning woke up went to turn lights on tank and noticed one of my True perks was on the bottom and not looking good, I am just beside myself at that moment all I couuld say is OH NO my tank is 1 month or better old, I then noticed my brand new Canister filter is not running a Marine Land 220 or 260 forgot the number, so I then started a water change thinking high amonia but wanted to waste no time got water draining and checked amonia levels as I thought it was between .25 and .50 I went on with water change about 30%, Thank God I had new water ready brought levels to normal within hours fish was fine so 4 days have past and all is well.
I took filter back got a new one and it worked for 10 minutes and quit glad I had a emperor 280 as back up so after 2 returned filters I got my money back went to another store and bought what has worked for 8 years, Fluval 205 and a Fluval 305 so now I feel more secure on back ups.
The Fluvals I have on my FW tanks are a 204 and a 404 they have been running for 8 years and no problems of any kind trying a new brand did not work for me.
