I love it, aside from the leaking problem. The headloss isn't all that bad, but now that the system is up and running and the rocks are in the system, I could have gone to a Dart.
The manifold works well for two reasons; it provides a lot of flow throughout the tank, and not just in a few areas, and its adjustable. The downside so far though is that the lockline is causing some shadowing, but I think that is more of a lighting issue then anything.
If you can, go for the Dart. You can always choke it back with no harm to the pump. Is this for your big system you just bought? Is it in Didsbury? We are coming out through Didsbury on the 26th!
