    I got one before from Randy at Polly's (bottom shelf, second fish stuff aisle). Last one was just sold out when I came in and they simply transferred a 606 from their NB store for me. Was ready for pick up the next day!

    Nextreef recommends a pump with 350 gph flowrate for their pellet reactors (Sicce 1.5 or Mag 3) and the Mini606 or Sicce 0.5 for their regular media reactors (phosphate, carbon, etc)

    Sicce Customer Service is really good. I got a 5.0 as a return pump for my tank and while installing the plumbing we cracked the thread part. 200 bucks down the drain I though but I sent a picture to Sicce and mentioned that I wish the pump was a little sturdier because I just destroyed one and haven't even gotten to use it once.
    The shipped me the back assembly (includes the motor) so I could piece together (with the good parts I had left from my first Sicce) a new 5.0 so I wans't out any money even though it could have easily been claimed as user error rather than warranty.

    I just checked and there is one sitting on the shelf in the UC store. Also I called over to the NB store and they are out of them right now but should be getting one in with the shipment tomorrow.

    Yeah, I think my plans have changed. Thanks for the heads up Karin, Gabe told me the same thing. I was planning on running two more reactors as well so I think I'm going to just use one pump for all of them. I have a Mag 9.5 sitting around that should work nicely. Thanks for the replies folks!
