I've had two Danners (a 250 and a 350) and my good friend at a fish store has sold many to people who use them for hydroponics in inline configurations, and neither of use has heard of one leaking unless it was POORLY mounted. I tried to make mine leak by pulling on the hoses severly, and it wuoldn't. Even eheim's will sometimes leak at all there o-rings. Eheims deffinetely are a great pump, but I think this Danner Mag-Drive leakage thing is blown out of proportion.

I have to admit before I got mine I too was warning everyone to silicon it up to as I read this somewhere.
