What is a good reliable return pump

[megs_clark]

I was just reading the adds for the eheim and noticed their not self priming. Living somewhere where the power goes out often, do you think this is a bad thing or not a big deal?

Not a problem if you have it in the sump, or at lowest water lewel.

IME you want simple go with a internal pump like A MAG i have this mag 12 its been going on 5 years same impellar and its quiet ,but in the end its up to what you want.

I have an Eheim and a Mag. Both reliable but the Eheim runs much quieter and cooler. You only have to prime it the first time unless you take it out of the water.
