    Just got one. Not sure they really needed to go with larger hoses for an extra 40gph increase. The C360 was only 35W, the 400 is 96W, also have to wonder if the increase in flow is worth the extra power consumption. I wanted to hook this up to my Coralife 6X UV but it has 3/4" barbs. I have a 360 on my other tank hooked up to a chiller and UV all with 3/4 fittings. I also put the big Fluval FX5 intake strainer on the original black intake tube. It fits loosely but doesn't fall off. I'll probably just use 3/4 I'd tubing on the 400 anyway. Slides on fine if heated up a little. The valve blocks are prone to leak if the hoses sag or droop down because they put pressure on the o-rings on the nipples where they swivel. If you unscrew the valve block you can disassemble and replace and lube all the o-rings as needed. Should be done once a year and it will prevent leaks from occurring! Marineland doesn't seem to keep parts in stock for these so invest in some o-ring assortment kits!

    I used to be a Marineland filter fanboy from when the first bio wheels came out, but no more. I have the Magniflow 220 I got new just a few years ago and one of the rubber tips on the impeller shaft got misshapen so it started to make a lot of noise. They do not make/sell the impeller anymore. I diyed a solution, but not the point. I thought companies were supposed to make spare parts for 10 years after a product was discontinued. Anyway, I am on the Eheim/Fluval bandwagon now. Too bad cause I liked the Marineland and they were less expensive.

      If it's making noise, then it's probably just a matter of getting enough water in the back or making sure the impeller is completely clean. Also, the impellers on these can be tricky to get down in there properly so try reassembling it.

    It's actual name Is a Comet Goldfish They're all the same There is no koi. Koi are very expensive Even small ones Sir you did right by these fish I sold fish to carnival games For 40 years I'm now 70 years old And most people take them home Put them in a jar They do not know you need A dechlorinator So right there With tap water That's the end of the fish No matter if it was sick when you got it Or not Like I said You did good but most people don't

      Yep, they are comets. I was letting my son feel like an expert 😁. I just wanted to help people be successful so I was happy to make this video.

      No issues at all. Still running and has held through a few power failures that were all less than a day.

    I can’t get the water to flow…. Ugh!!!

    • @FishyReview
      @FishyReview Місяць тому

      I hope you’ve figured it out! For this filter, it helps a lot if the tank is as full as it can be.

      I had the same problem. I had to really push the inlet tube down to get my water flowing, but it never “clicked” into place like it did in this video. My filter is making little hissing noises so hopefully I did everything correct. Thanks for this video, it was way better than the paper instructions!

    My standard pf70 in my 55 would do this as well, folded up an old playing card and wedged between the back of the tank and filter body and it has not done it since

      I own 7 top fin filters. 5 tanks. Only time I've had problems with noise is if their defective, need to be primed, or not set up correctly

    I don't own one of these but i have been impressed with what I've seen in the past and now with your honest video im not liking the hose or the way they connect to the motor so think you for sharing this video. Not saying i won't buy one in the future but have some worries. Thanks for sharing

      I think you’re talking about an aftermarket part that’s out there? I don’t know about that but I have a video about a UV that works great.

    Does anyone know why after I plug mine in it works for about 1 minute then turns off

    • @FishyReview
      @FishyReview Місяць тому

      That seems very odd. It probably needs to be replaced.

    Hi,I would like to know if you could tell me do I need to cover that cut out where the filter hangs?

    • @FishyReview
      @FishyReview Місяць тому

      The main concern is if you have fish or inverts that might jump/crawl out. The next concern is evaporation. So it’s good to cover as much of the top of the tank as you can, if possible.
