I've only used the bell, and find them hardly any maintenance, except for
the occasional snail crawling thru the stream path. Slime does build up
over time, but they're very easy to pull off and clean. ~ jan

The one I have know only takes a few minutes to hose out, but it needs doing
every couple of days. The Algae plugs those small holes pretty quickly.
