Hi Roy.
No salt mate & the Nexus is Just over 2.1/2 years old Bort it October 05.
I also had 1 rusty rivet on the bottom of the Easy that i had to replace with a stainless screw about 12 mouths ago as that had corroded away.

RoyH @ 12:46 pm commented on Pedro's photo

hi Pedro do you run your pond with salt present?

Hi dave.
If they think 5mins in cleaning the Nexus is high maintenance they must be doing some thing wrong.
I would defiantly recommend a Nexus.

Hi Roy,

I have put an Airtech 80 on now & that has sorted the problem as the Nexus bio is clean as a whistle.

RoyH @ 8:31 pm commented on Pedro's photo

i now have foam in my nexus outlet

RoyH @ 8:30 pm commented on Pedro's photo

hi pedro, never had anything like that amount of buildup of mulm, but i have always had a min of 100lt of air going into the nexus. good pictures & a good point raised!
