Diablo dc pumps
 

Anyone run one of these? Just ordered a 10500 from Ray at reefsupplies as per his recommendation . Going on a 180 tank so should be lots. Just wanted to know what people think of these things

The one my skimmer is dead quite and after a power outer ramps up to the setting in about 10 15 seconds so make sure u set an internal skimmer if not a dc pump to delay start but all in all great pump

Thinking about buying one for my return pump. Is anyone has any more ideas?

Have not ran mine yet, but looks good from the box. Lol:)

What are you waiting for? Christmas lol. I am still deciding this pump or Waveline DC10000II.

Pump wise it does not look any different, only reason I went with the diabo was availability, little better warranty

i will go with Waveline DC10000II.

Running a DC10000 on my 165 for over a yr now, power supply crapped out 4 months ago and the flow rate is not as high as spec's but I still like the pumps so much that I will be running 4 of the DC10000 as my returns on the new 300 but not WaveLine's went with SpeedWaves. Also going to be running 2 - DC5000 for my chiller, reactors & my 60 gal seahorse tank.

I also have one of the new WaveLine DC10000II that was sent to me by a top gun at WaveLine from China free of charge for the power supply warranty issues.

I think the Gen. 2 versions are 6000 & 12000 l/hr

Gen. 1 versions are 5000 & 10000 l/hr
