C'mon, I'm interested in hearing this answer, too. Anyone who owns a pressurized filter by Tetra, Laguna, Oase or Pondmaster (those seem to be the leading brands) -- how well does the backflush system work?
Oldgeezer: What don't you like about the Fishmate?
I'm ready to upgrade to a pressurized system. But I'm not prepared to spend $1K or $2K for a bead system.
