Just to make sure I have time a device in a Zoofachmarkt (Megazoo) bought, but was aware of the above-described problem. So I have the seller also noted and he looked in about 3-4 original packaging in which the threads were already begun or even small cracks were observed. These he has taken immediately off the shelf and wanted to send it back to Dennerle. The left gebliebenden handsome Perlator I bought then and this also held a little longer than the others, but then went to about 8 weeks in the same way broken.
I'm curious times to just ordered equipment and will update here. Even with this experience I have to buy me a Perlator since the previous as described has again given up the ghost and I fertilizing with CO2 and pH holding stable.
Currently there are some sellers here on Amazon as well as in Megazoo specialty store delivery delays of 1-2 months to unknown time, so I assume that Dennerle has now recognized the problem and hopefully nachbessert production. If this is the case, there is of me 5 stars (maybe even a star deduction because of this history) at the moment with this experience, but unfortunately only 1 star.
