From your research what have you found to be the pros and cons of each pump?

I know, i was kidding..

Have you looked into the jebao pumps? I think jrsatx was thinking on a group order....

Those are a last resort. I want some user info on the hydors and the tunze.

last resort. another member just stated best pump for the cash.

from what i have read on the jebao , they are just steps behind vortech .

yes they are big. but with the questions you have asked seems like your on a budget.
tunze are expensive and and the #4 hydor is more than the jebao.

it is all a matter of opinion and how much you want to spend.
tunze powerful wide flow
vortech wide powerful flow best out there imo but cost a lot
hydor decent flow just as big as the jebao med flow pattern

Well said dude...

I will never run a hydor in a tank.... You need to have no less than 4 in a tank my size to have no dead spots....

2 mp40s fixed that... But was alot of loot...

Ive never owned a tunze... So i wont comment on them..


The jebaos are what i would be buying if i was setting up a reef and on a strict budget..

i had hydor but then i was running a closed loop with a sequence dart pump. that alone was a lot of flow

It's for a 40b so the tunze would be either a 6015 or a 6025.

WPs is a good combination of features and cost. If you're on a budget then it will be your best bet.

Tunze 6085 for a budget. Tunze 6055 or 6095 to do it right with a single pump controller. Vortech MP 10 works well too.

MJ1200 with modded flow is another cheap way to go too. It's has plenty of flow and does not take a lot of real estate either.That pet place was having a sale on the Mj1200 Pro for $18.
