    Which one is better
    Koralia or Taam Seio; also are Koralia Evolution Pumps worth the extra cash ?

    No wave maker, just powerheads. I cannot afford $200 for those guys.

    I hate Koralias. They are so ugly in my tank but I knew no better when I set it up. The new tank will have one big Blueline 70HD running the show with a manifold distributing the water all over the tank with modular pipe being the only thing in the water. No more power cords in the water.

    Take a look at the Sicce Voyagers too. I just did a review on them and so far so good.

    I read your review, it was very helpful but those pumps are 20-30 dollars more then Koralia Evolution. I just dont see that much adventage with spending that extra cash.

    Not sure where you are looking but I found pricing to be comparable between the two. The Voyagers are available today too and I have not found any Evolutions in stock yet.

    Well I guess your right its almost the same, just a tad bit more. Just realized that the flow is not the same for comparison models.
