Just got the email from BRS! I remember seeing the video of this thing at MACNA and it looks awesome! Who has $300 and wants to be our guinea pig!

What do you guys think will this change the way we move aquarium water and replicate ocean movement? As we know a similar thing happened with fans in the U.S. With many adapting a column design.

Revolutionary product?
Gimmick?

Let's hear your 2 cents!

I believe it will be a revolutionary product. It just depends on the type of tank. Meaning I believe it will work well for an SPS tank if you place a couple on a timer and have them operate at different times. I would love to have one for my frag tank. Help to move build up under my frag rack.

I hope it is revolutionary they could make them very discreet and small while still moving volumes of water. I believe gallons per hour is a calculation of impeller blade surface area, and rotational speed. I hope your right and these really help us advance the hobby!

I ordered mine...shipping from CA, should be here Thursday or Friday. But I still don't have water in my tank so I will only be able to view it and not see it in action yet.
