I use a rainbow sand filter and it works very well. It is the only filter I have that I like but it does spit sand into the water and I have had to refill it. Good filter.

What does fsf stand for?

I have one, I am happy with it, as long as you watch the adjustment, it won't send much sand into the tank. Thanks, Justin

i've got one and i could never get the adjustment right. it finally blew out all the sand. <img src="graemlins//dead.gif" border="0" alt="[dead]" /> so, at this current time it is just holding space inline to all of the pumps.
