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!

Indeed eheim pumps are more reliable base on my experenices

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.

Tank size:36"x36"x24"

Return pump" 2x Reef Octo 5000

Skimmer:BK Double Cone 200 on Reef Octopus DC 5500s.

Wavemaker:2xVortech MP40wES

me eheim supporter

sold my AB3000 after 1 month of usage

too hot, not sure if the new batch has the same issue

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.
