Pumps

[McNugget]

Hi all,

I heard that eheim pumps are very reliable, but aquabee specs wise looks more efficient and cheaper.

Can anyone share their experiences?

Any other recommendations?

Thanks!

Tried both..Eheim better in term of noise level and head pressure.

Ehiem is better in term of pressure head but watt is the killer !

Hi, is it intent to use as return pump?

Both Eheim & Aquabee can run out-sump. If you plan to run in-sump, Rio pump can also be considered.

Anyone has experience on ehiem compact+ pumps(3000, 5000 model) ? They r Higher flow n slightly lower power consumption but lower head as compared to the universal model.

Had search web n think the compact plus not really made by ehiem. So far read tat universal better than compact plus based on primarily head pressure as most pple t off to chiller or fr. Seems most pple prefer universal model. Compact plus 3000 maxflow at 3000lph at 68w if not wrong. All compact head pressure at 3m.

I think Eheim is a better choice

you sold AB because it was too hot? i heard the wattage for eheim is much higher, hence i thought it would be hotter than AQ.

guess eheim pump is the mainsteam preferred pump due to its quietness and reliability.
