    I have no personal experience with them, but they are made by taam. The company makes rio and via aqua, both not really top shelf products IME.

    I had 2 of the Seio prop super flow wavemaker type on my tank previously
    the ones with magnet mounts

    performance wise they seemed OK
    but they are more directional than the equivelent sized Korallia types IME
    The also take up a bit more tank space, as they intrude further inward to the tank
    than magnet mounted Korallia types do

    I agree with Steve. I have 2 M2600s in my tank and they took me forever to get the flow right. They were causing sand to clear out in certain areas. Mine are pretty bulky and take up real estate.

    I used to have Seios, then switched to the K series Koralias and now have the Koralia Evolutions series which work on a controller unlike the others. Much smaller, way more power efficient and smooth with no vibrations. And the Evo mounting system is much better than the old Seios.

    They work OK as long as you don't start and stop them on a timer or controller and they are huge monsters compared to others.
