Hello guys! I am a super newb and have searched the forums to find reviews on this product. It is the w/ JBJ Reaction 4-Stage Canister Filter + UV EFU-25. The local stores around here have been pushing this filter hardcore. I am looking for a good canister filter sub $175. What do you guys think? Your feedback is much appreciated.

Welcome to AC. what fluval were you looking at? if you shop online for the most part you can find really good deals on filters. i think the jbj is a eheim knock off.
:welcome: Relatively new filter by comparison to Fluval & most others. Too soon to really judge but seems like a good concept. http://www.seaquestmarine.com/JBJ_EFU_35_Reaction_4_Stage_Canister_Filter_p/jbj_efu35.htm similar to http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=12702&c=3578+3580 Time will tell if all-in-one concept of filter & UV will hold up. I vote for seperates but that's just me (kinda old fashioned

I like my FX5, bought it on ebay for about $150. Might be overkill for a 75 though.
Not too sure about the smaller Fluvals. I have heard a lot of mixed reviews.

I personally use the Magnum 350 on my 90 and seems to have no problem but some people hate them. I have never had any problem with them myself.
