I was looking for something to blow detritus out of the back of my tank, so I set off to SamsAquarium to buy a cheap pump, well I looked at the pumps and saw the SunSun pump for R215 and thought well that looks like a rip of Hydor Korilia(it said 'made in china') it said 5000lh on the box, paid, so home I went with the pump. I put it in the the sink to get all the factory chemicals of the pump, switched it on and wow, what flow, its crazy how much flow it give and its so spareed, well here a video.
The piece of plastic in the sink is to show the flow,

Just at look at the pump, the impeller is like no other i have seen. The pump is on a nice rotateable shaft on a suction cup base, here is a pic on the size of the pump and shaft,
here is the impeller and casing, Hydor Korilia match.
Here is the pump in my tank,
Pros:
low energy 12w
powerful flow
5000lh
brilliant price R215
nice size
spread flow
nice rotation
nice suction cups
I would rate it above the Seio pump(my opinion)
cons:
a little noise(about the same amount as TS skimmer(very faint)
copy of Hydor Korilia
European fitting (need to buy a plug before you can use it)
Feel free to comment on this thread, as I am writing this in purely my opinion so please don't criticize me, i am only doing this to help you guy who would like a review,
