    You need special holes drilled in your tank and its pretty much impossible to get in the US. When i first saw it i wanted one and unless i wanted to pay for shipping from overseas, it wasnt going to happen.

    Edit: looks like that has now changed.

    People prolly dont know about it.

    X-Aqua’s X-Inout Device Arrives to US

    Here it says..."And because the change in flow is not originating from the pump motor, this means more pressure your return pump will face. X Aqua states the maximum flow rate for the X-Inout is 2,000 l/h or 528 gph." -- Yet it says this is supposed to be the main source of water flow? I just can't see it being worth the cost. :-/
