5 Great idea, great service!

I bought two of these about 18 months ago. They generate tons of flow, even on the smaller MaxiJets. When I checked them recently, I noticed the shafts on both had rusted, and one failed completely after cleaning. When I moaned about it here, Jason mentioned they had changed to a titanium shaft, and suggested I ask for replacements. They not only sent new shafts, but new propellers. Great service all around.

5 Great Mod

Love it, Maxijets are one of those brands that's been around forever so you know their reliable, but this takes a work horse and turns it into a racehorse! I put these on a pair of Maxijet 400s and it turned my tank into a sandstorm. I actually had to get some of the plastic needle point grid to cover the openings to cut down on the amount of flow these were creating. Just wish it came with the Sure Grip mag rather than separate.

3 it destroys your maxijet

I had two of them running because they worked so well, so I got two more. Within 4 months, the anti-reverse tab on one of them broke and got stuck in the propeller, and I came home from work to a dead maxijet in my tank. Within the next two months, the mod caused the impeller shaft to push though and destroy two others. I did not run it on a wave timer per a reviewer's suggestion, but it still failed. This was a good product when it worked, but not reliable, and renders your maxijet useless after it fails.

5 Great product - Best 15$ ever spent on tank

This thing is designed well from decent quality material puts out a huge volume yet gentle output and gets the tank really moving. Live Rock hardly has debris like before...
I wouldnt use it on a tank smaller than 48 inches Length...but your tank may be different.
It was somewhat noisy out of the box but after 3-4 weeks of running I cant hear it anymore.
Amazing mod....

Good lord. I tried the larger propeller first on my Maxi 1200, and there was a literally an underwater tornado in my 50g tank. The water flow was excellent, but the fish didn't seem happy all plastered to the far end of the tank, and sand was flying everywhere. So, I put the smaller propeller back in, and positioned the powerhead high up and it's doing great. It's kinda noisy, but I'm hoping it will get quieter as it breaks in.

3 Awesome Flow, but on a time blow the back out of two 1200

I bought 5 kits. I have them on a wave timer. Only problem I'm having is for some reason the prop shaft on two of the kits have blow right out the back of two of the MJ1200. Blows the cover off and everything. Other that that you do get a great deal of flow. Don't sure what is wrong. Only thing I could think is maybe the shaft is just a tad to long. Sucks lossing two new maxjet 1200 in less then a few months.

5 Awesome flow, but maybe too much

Wow, awesome product. I put these on a couple MJ600s and they moved water like crazy. No vibration/noise issues during the evening I played with them, but admittedly that wasn't much of a test.
Now the warning. I didn't really believe the flow they advertised, my own fault. It turns out that I can't use these in my 30 gallon tank without stirring sand. Well, I can just use them, but it's too marginal. If a nozzle ever got bumped it would be a nightmare. So beware that they actually mean it when they quote those crazy flow numbers ;~)

Outstanding product for the money. I have three MJ400's in a 55GAL tank I think it might be to much flow if there is ever such a thing. They run great with little noise on my wavemaster pro. I will have to upgrade to the magnetic holders due to a little vibration. Still cheeper than tunze that can not be controlled.
