Koralia 1 vs. Nano Stream.

Has anyone tried the Koralia 1? I have a 24 gallon Aquapod that needs more flow. Just wanna make sure it's not too strong and would blow my sand around. How big is it? I saw the specs for some of the larger Koralias and they were over five inches, which is a bit cumbersome-looking for my little tank.

Or, how do people feel about the Tunze Nano Stream? Anyone using them?

I have a korilla 1 in my 20 and I think it works great, no noise or vibrations. It actually reaches anywhere in my tank I want it to.

How big is it? I'm using a Rio with a Hydor on it now, and it jetts out almost six inches. I'm looking for something smaller but still strong.

I have the Koralia 1 in my 24 gallon Aquapod and I think it works great... it sticks out about 4 inches from the glass including the interior mount...

Yeah, I've only heard good things about the Koralias... Not the least of which is that hopefully it'll help bring other PH prices down. Thanks for the responses.

Scooter- Do you think it sticks out too much or gets in the way of the lights at all? Does it look pretty slick in the tank?

chujai,
FYI, Hydor is doing a recal on the Koralia 2 and 3 models for electricity issues. Contact them for more info.
