the filter has a tendency to lose a lot of flow unless you clean it often.
i wouldn't recommend it unless you like cleaning the filter every other week.
If you have not already done so remover the red cone shaped flow indicator. That will help with the flow a little. Also set it up like the 501 unit. Foam over the intake inside the unit and bio and carbon on the other side. I have had mine running awhile now with only a little loss of flow.
