Recommended Posts

Hi all,

was doing some research and comparision on pumps with output, 2000+ L/hr, and I came out with this table... so i thought might as well share it here...

common choices here in Singapore are Eheim, Rio and Aquabee...

common reviews are

- eheim reliable but high watt...

- rio low watt but noisy, some also mentioned that it runs hot...

but looking at the price vs watt and output, rio seems to be the better one...

headloss shldnt be of much concern if using as a feeder pump cos' all are rather similar, with the exceptions of Aquabee 2000 of 1.6m and Eheim 1260 of 3.7m...

I'm using Tesino GP232 bought from China. It's super silent, good price and low watt :thumbsup: !

Some of these data are gather straight from the packaging of the respective manufacturer and some may not be accurate.

I have used both Aqua Bee and Eheim before and I can attest that the AB definitely is not able to withstand higher head compared to Eheim.

Nevertheless, it is a good reference.
