pump suggestion
Hi im thinking its time to change my return pump im running a 90g mixed with sump (about 30 not 100% sure of the size) hydor 1, 2 and a return of 660 right now... so about my water currently changes about 15X/hr i would like to go with something higher 900-1200gph, (also needs to be submersible)
what pump can you recommend, i would like something quieter my tanks in my living room thanks so i went to a few different places today and got a 1800gph mag drive that i am going to try to use and slit it with lock line so i can get rid of my powerheads... (the manager said if it didnt work i can return it) so why not right! has anyone ever done that before? |
What pump are you running now?

I am a big fan of the ehiem pumps for the noise. The 1262 is a extremely quiet but only pushes 900gph. I have 2 Mag 1800 running my 180 and they are great pumps just a bit more noisy then the ehiem.

ATB Flowstar 1500 - extremely efficient and as quiet as the eheims but uses less power. About $220.
|
I switched to a Mag not too long ago, and am very happy with the low noise level.
|
Is the pump rated at 660gph or is that the actual flow you get with head pressure?
