I was looking for a place in the city and the only one I found was new world aquarium, it was a big jump in price over the place I go to in brooklyn, but they have frags for sale, as opposed to buying $85 and up pieces in brooklyn. I never bought livestock from them cause of the high prices...
I used to hear a sort of snapping sound from my tank every other night or so, one night i turned the lights on to see one of the hermit crabs walking against the flow of the powerhead and the shell kept hittin the wall of the tank.
I've been looking into this over the last couple weeks, I've learned that not just koralias burn out, but most AC powered powerheads burn out cause they have a braking system.
The powerheads used are DC powered and frequency driven via controller boxes.
These systems are expensive :(

I got one because Ive always been told they battle nuisance algae, and I have seen a great decrease in since I've installed it about two weeks ago.
