I think you'll LOVE the Koralia pumps. I just bought a pair of the Nano's and love them and will be running them in my upcoming 90g build as well. I think I'll start with #3's and add more if needed.

I bought two of the #4's when they first came out (Feb maybe??). I really loved the flow and the easy mount magnets, however within the last month both of the pumps failed on me within weeks of one another. I don't know if there is a difference in the first ones produced but that is my experience. I since bought a Tunze 6045 to replace one of the Koralia's but I didn't feel that it really compares to the flow on the Koralia's. I then bought the mod kit sold for the Maxi jets and modded a 1200. Great powerhead, lots of flow, takes all of one minute to put the new propeller and case on the unit.........then viola! Of course you still don't have a better mount or magnet mount unless you buy that separate. I used the magnet from my Koralia (at least I could salvage something from the dead thing) and glued it on with a little Crazy glue. Great powerhead now!! I just thought I'd tell my experience for what it's worth.......

I think the first run of these had some kind of voltage leaking.Not shure it was the #4's but it was a few sizes.I think they were replacing them for free too.

I have 2 #4s on my 125 and love them. So far no problems and lots of flow. I wouldn't run them on a wavemaker though since the openings are so big a fish etc could be in there when it restarts.
