Recommended Posts

currently my tank's total volume is ard 700 litres, was tinkin of having a healthy turnover of at least 10x...current return pump is ard 6,500l/hr, should i add another 4,500l/hr to it?

elec consumption is 65w, if i add a 1264, the total elec comsumption of my return pumps will be 165w...is it worth it? hmmm

Should be fine bah... You keeping sps?

Shun, the RD should suffice if ur not keeping SPS.

1264?? Hmmm, I'm looking for one actually. Haha.

Can pm me the price? If u plan to sell lah..

Alternatively, keep as backup pump. :)

haha ok bro, will drop u a pm when i finalized on my plan :)

I agree, keep the 1264 as backup. I had a RD pump before but use the 1260 back again after using the RD pump for 2 years only. My RD pump is in a plastic bag. Some pump are workhorse while others are not. <_<

thks for the advice bro...i may wanna use my rio 20 instead as a 2nd return pump due to the high elec consumption of 1264, though when it comes to reliability, nth beats eheim...tats the dilemma

The pump to look into now is the Bubble Blaster pump. Lower wattage than the Eheim. I experienced an expensive lesson with the RD pump so am now a once bitten, twice shy reefer. I do also own the BK Super Marin 250 which also uses the RD pump and am praying very hard that this pump would not konk out on me like the RD return pump model I use. Well, only time will tell though.
