My Boss and I are at odds right now because he has decided to stop carrying the hagen aquaclear series. He is having trouble getting them from Hagen because they consider us their main competition for fish here in Montreal so they make ordering a pain as well as making us wait for long periods before sending the product.
I have found a way to bypass hagen all together and still get the product for the same price sometimes cheaper when the supplier puts them on sale.
He HATES the aquaclear and says that they are the garbage of the filter world. He is an emperor/penguin person. So he won't go with my ordering idea for the hagens.
I think that the AC is a great filter in fact I use them on all my tanks at home as either the main or back up filter. The things that can be done with them is such a draw. I however from my experience at work with the emperor/penguins find them very very sub par weak flowed and a waste of money.
With the Ac now out of the store we now have the the following hobs.
Whisper- UGH!
emperor- I still don't buy that whole bio wheel thing. I can see it carrying some bacteria but not as much as they claim. Plus those cartriges that do have a lot of bacteria end up getting thrown out because they are such a hassle to clean
penguin- See above
I would like to see us start to carry the tetratech series even just to give us another option to sell. I just can't get it through to him that we should be selling the ac's.
Which Hob do you use or like the most. I'm curious to see the consensus here at AC
