With fine Garnelenkies I had no problems so far, it is purely the sludge sucked. While it is true that if you accidentally sucks larger pieces / plant remains / adhesive along gravel, the valve is blocked, but that is in the nature of things and can not be accused of the valve. Then you take up from the Ansaugroh and blows the valve once.
Bin after repeated use is still very satisfied. It broke anything and the service is consistently good.
