Return Pump

[Jewel]

I'm using a Mag 3 at the moment, It's been dependable but thinking about something else, Any suggestions?

i would say somethng DC driven,run cooler and are controlable

 

[Jewel]

Not sure about the DC pumps, what about the Water Blaster 3000?

Water blaster line are dead silent, efficient and have a 3 year warranty.

Sounds like a great pump.

I personally like the dc pumps, speedwave or waveline.

I know 200 for a Water Blaster 3000, but if you think about it, it is important to your system, Who makes the Dc Pumps?

Been reading a lot of problems with the DC pumps, both waveline and speedwave, i think they have some bugs to work out yet, Water blasters are pretty reliable.

water blasters r great.. ive got 2... + low wattage

 

[pulpfiction1]

no issues here with my speedwave,dead quiet,slow startup,and i can feel no heat comming off it in my sump

Mine is dead silent and aquarium is big enough heat doesn't factor in.

I have the waveline. DC pump. Yu can even get a jaebo line of them. Duke has one.

 

[pulpfiction1]

actually it was his that sold me on the dc pumps,i use my mag for mixing salt water now

Ya I love mine, the first Gen DC pumps had some issues with the threads on the outputs.. It's long been fixed now tho. Quiet. Affordable, low heat low energy consumption, can't go wrong with one for sure

Eheim compact here! When it's running on its own it is dead silent!!! Plus I switch it off every night for feeding and I haven't had a problem with it starting up at all!!! Oh yeah and you can adjust the flow with a dial on the side of the pump...
