I'm looking for users experience with the ReefFlo pumps. Specifically, I'm looking into the HammerHead/Barracude Gold. My only concern here is the leaking of the seals, which I've read enough to know it is a problem. But how often does this happen, and how much does it cost to replace the seals...
Basically my return pump's chamber has water filled to the lowest and my filter section of the tank only covers one media box which I dont think is normal? When I first got this tank my pump was good and the chamber was filled decently making little to no noise. Consequently, one day my sister...
Hello All,
I have just acquired a new R.O. system and the water pressure is not enough to go thru it.
Here in Brazil the proper R.O. pumps are very expensive, I was wonder if could use those motorhome ones, as long as they deliver the same or even higher pressures, the price difference is huge...
Hi everyone, so I've set up a little betta tank as an amphipod culture tank but the powerhead that the internal filter comes with is obviously designed for freshwater; I was wondering, is it really such an issue to use a pump that likely has a stainless steel shaft for marine purposes? The pumps...
Hi all, I am looking for some advice on pump selection/plumbing configuration. I am thinking about moving the sump into my basement but I am fairly confident that my COR20 is not going to do the job. I am looking for a minimum of 400 GPH with a guestimated head of 20FT (includes height and...
So I just set up a 25 gallon AIO tank. This is my first salt water and AIO system. The section where water flows into the filter system in the back seems to not be very powerful. Maybe I just don’t understand. I’ll include some photos to help explain. It almost seems like it’s not sucking water...
I have a PLS-50 Elite II skimmer by CAD lights. The pump got busted recently and I can't find a replacement as it looks like the company is no longer in business.
Are skimmer pumps with the pinwheels universal? I want to be sure the performance is the same. I love this skimmer, it does and...
Hi, I want to use my Raspberry Pi to control the pH of the water in my tank. I have followed the online tutorial using an Arduino which showed that the pumps work, but I want to do it all through the Pi using Node Red because I already use it to control water height, pumps and lighting. I know...
Hello all,
I own a 5 gallon nano reef that measures 16 wide inches by 8 inches wide.
I have been having some Cyano Bacteria Issues at the front of the tank where the light is most prominent.
I am looking for the smallest wave maker pump that will fit comfortably within my tank.
I have been...
Hey so I just installed a Coralife 3x Twist UV sterilizer with with an aquatop pump rated for 317 gph with max head pressure of 50 inch (AQUATOP NP-305 to be exact). Water flow seems to trickle out so I tried calculating water flow and I’m seeing about 4 gallons per hour which is wayyyyyyyy...
Title says it all. I'm looking to buy an Ecotech Vectra L2. I'd also consider alternative external pumps for a closed loop setup. Key is that they must be dead silent.
Thanks in advance,
David

After years of development and testing I finally made up my mind to introduce to you my AquariOS controller project, intending to use this thread as its long-term support platform.
It's about a 20-channel low-cost DIY aquarium controller, capable...

So, despite all of my love for my current canister filter system, I've decided to bite the bullet and learn how to use a sump as I upgrade from a 46g display to an 80g display. I couldn't source a new Seapora 80g low-boy tank anywhere, and Seapora told me they aren't currently manufacturing them...
Hello ☺️
Just curious about recommendations for a small pump or wave maker for some more flow in the tank. Or if it’s even needed. I was thinking maybe an MP10 but it’s a bit out of my budget at the moment.
Thanks!

I upgraded to a Reefer 350 and bought all Nero pumps.
So it’s up for sale for 200 shipped to lower 48
But I prefer to trade for a Nero 3 (must have fish guard)
