BlackFin Reeflo pumps

[Interior_Reef]

I agree completly. I have a BF2500 running on one of our systems. It delivers water to 4 x 55G tanks, and 2 x 20G tanks, from the sump. 2 of the 55s are at a maximum height of 7ft, and they each one, on a 1" ballvalve is open about 1/3, still leaving TONS more flow if i need it.

As for the noise. It's vurtually silent. i can hear the odd gurgle from the Durso's more than the pump.

I am quite impressed with these pumps. I have 1 more to use, and it will be feeding our new coral display once set up.

And finally for the heat.
After about 5 hours, any one of the snappers or darts i have used, gets hot to the touch, and i mean burn fingers hot.

The blackfin, not even slightly warm.

I love these pumps, so far!

I have it running my Precision Marine Bullet skimmer and I have never seen so much foam in it, me likey

I have the blackfin 6000 running and it's a loud hum. I'm so glad that the pump is in my basement. I am very happy with the flow and the pump does run cool. Hope this helps.

I recently bought the 3600...it arrived quickly but I haven't hooked it up yet.

Looking forward to what it can do.

Just an update on these pumps...apparently they are back selling them again after making a few changes to the packaging to help stop so much shipping damage.

They tell me that they are offering people who purchased one of the original Blackfins a really hot deal on more if they want them. They offered me $219 on a second BF3600 if I wanted it.

Just in case someone needs more of these I thought I would let you know.
