Mine is the older In-280. Since I combined my tanks into one sump (230g system), it is probably a little overworked. But it sure pulls out a lot of gunk every week, despite my pre-filtering with the sponge. So I think it is doing a pretty good job. My nutrients are kept very low as well, zero for nitrates and near zero for phosphates.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
