FYI I have asked the supplier and these are 2nd gen CP-40s.

I would have to double check as I was just going to order a case of 40s and there's 6 in a case. I don't think its a whole lot cheaper for the 25s, maybe $4-5.

What's the difference between gen 2 & 3?

And also is import duties included?

As far as I know there are only 2 generations
As for the difference between gen 1 and 2, I am not sure what upgrades were made. But I'm sure like the Jebao DCS vs DCT, they did some fine tuning to help make the pump quieter and optimize performance. You might be able to find more info on google, but based on what I am seeing most of those perks are only relevant if you buy a wifi controller for it which I am not doing. They likely would have still fine tuned the pump itself.

So these CP40s are the newer versions if that clears anything up.
And they do NOT include the wifi add on.
If you want one with wifi Fish street seems to have them for $219 USD ouch...

The only thing I see on fish street is a July 14 Update for the new ones. These are the same new ones. Just no wifi thing.


EDIT:
Just need 2 more people. Will likely have an answer about the CP25s tomorrow morning for those who have asked me about the smaller ones for their tanks.

well those don't exactly exist yet so not sure how I can compare them?

As with everything else updates are always being brought out. We can wait for an update or new version but it wont be long before its outdated. Jebao brings out new versions all the time it seems. Retailers in Canada were finally just getting the DCT pumps in when they released the DCS and I snagged one of those from overseas.

Keep in mind that Fish street is US pricing as well

If you don't want to order don't. But I feel like youre trying to put down my topic here and get people to back out or? As of July there were 2 versions I was made aware of. Like half the other companies out there they likely bring out an upgraded version every few months.
