Does anyone use one of these? Either for a fish tank or turtle tank?

After I move, in about 4 months, I am upgrading Boris' set-up. I am going to go with the biggest tank I can get for him. While drooling over the Dr. Foster and Smith catolog I saw one of these and it looked really interesting and easy to use with the XP3 I plan on getting.

Any thoughts???

Lots of people who have aquariums will use these. They report that they are a great tool and wouldnt live with out them. They say flow reduction is minimal so that is a plus for sure.

An alternative would be an Ehiem filter with the built in heater. No flow loss, and no heater in tank.
