External Gen-X pump

[6LINE]

I was just wondering if anyone here was using one of these pumps? I just set my tank up and it is pretty loud. I didn't think it was going to be quite this loud :wacko I guess i will be plumbing it through the wall into the garage like i had not really wanted to do.

LOL, thanks. I thought i was just over reacting because this is the first external that i have had....

I almost went with Iwaki, but i have heard that Gen-X was pretty reliable, and the price was right as well.......... :)

you guys should run up to CB Pets and check out the Sequence Barracuda they have on one of the new coral tanks, quiet as a mouse.

I'll second the noise on the GenX pumps. Noisy and they get warm/hot.

If any of you guys are interested in a Sequence Hammerhead, I think I may downgrade.
This this is a beast......I think I overordered when I bought it.
Its two months old.

What's the rating on the Hammerhead? I have a Stingray model I purchased, but haven't used yet.

5800 GPH

I think it is the one above a Stingray.
I wish it were about 3000 GPH

Wow, 5800 GPH!!! Way too much for my tank. I would love to get a sequence, but that is more than i need on the return (i think). I was thinking this was too much. But not real sure yet. Won't really know til i get the rock in. Thanks for the info guys.
