I bought one of those to use for my FOWLR tank, and it was unreliable. It is not quiet, and it won't restart after it is shut off. I always had to try 15-20 times to get it to run again. Either that or I had to pull it out of the water so there was no load on the impeller. Not good if the power ever went off as it would not restart itself. I replaced it with a MAG 7, and thats what I'd reccoment to you.
