    Hey guys does anyone have any experience with the sobo sf range of filters?
    Im currently looking for a filter for my 2 ft tank and Im considering the sobo sf-850f or a tidal 55. I am looking for a bigger filter as I want to upgrade to a 3 ft tank in due course. Are the sobo canisters reliable or should they be avoided?

    I would go Dolphin or Plax Casscade, even the Plax Casscade HOB 300 is an an awesome filter

    Ive got a Sobo sf-1500f-uv and it is a nice filter, does the job. Only problem is that I cannot find parts for it, so next time ill probably go for a Dophin or Penn Plax cascade.
