DCH Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hi all, Any one using the reef octopus HY-5000W? Thinking of using it for my return tank and the specs seem quite good (3.5m max head 5.2k l/h at 60 W) Hoping someone can give some feedback on this pump. Thanks!

Solo77 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Hi bro, yr new tank project commenced? Not a user to this pump but they looked impressive enough and reasonably priced to give it a try. Maybe u can google other forums to check as i think it is not commonly available(at that time after aquarama). Later on, the lower flow rate models was made available. The needlewheel pump also looked impressive. : ) Quote Tank : 4 X 2 X 2 with low iron front panel and external overflow Skimmer : BK SM200 with waste collector Return Pumps : Red Dragon 6m3 and Ehiem 1262 FR : 2 X Deltec 509 & powered by AB2000 Nitrate Filter : Deltec NF 509 and tee off from AB2000 Calcium R'tor : Deltec PF 501 with RM secondary chamber Kalkwasser R'tor : Deltec KM500 Chiller : Pansonic 1 HP Compressor with 20m titanium Coil Wave Makers : 4 X Tunze 6055 with 7096 & Vortec MP40w Controller : GHL Profilux Lighting : ATI Powermodule 10 or 8 tubes Water Top-up : Water Top-Up tank powered by Tunze Osmolator External Monitor : American Pinpoint pH and Temp.
