some people were raving about them...

Last i heard was that one persons has leaked... No more feedback to report on...

IMO i feel more comfortable using a second canister.. I have a small aqua one CF500 filled with only eheim substrat.. just as a booster for bio filtration

Mattzilla has done a review on one of these in the Product Reviews topic area.

FBF's are great when integrated into a tanks filtration system (i.e. supplementary filtration)
