    I have one of those, got it in a trade, spend the extra money on the hydors, these are decent and move great amounts of water BUT the suction cups dont stick, i woke up one am to a very cloudy tank bc it fell off.

    Some of those korallia knock offs do have magnets. I hear that those are actually pretty good then. Suction cups as a sole way of affixing something that moves 300gph or greater is an accident waiting to happen.

    I have heard good things actually, but they don't seem to last as long as the Koralias. About a year or two with these. Plus if something were to break, good luck finding a replacement part or any type of warranty service ;)
    Personally I would stick with the Koralias. There's not a whole lot of money to be saved here when your talking marine hobby expense.
