    I have an Eheim 1262 rated at 900gph, which is one of the best pumps in the hobby. I will let it go for $75.

    You really don't want a Rio anything that are notorious for nuking a tank.

    That's an old problem that, by all accounts, has been satisfactorily cured. That being said, an Eheim is clearly a superior solution to a Rio.
