The Tech Den Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Bought two and had one that failed. So if you get them it might be a good idea to have a spare. Does not seem to have the pressure of the more well known brands. Compared it to a Tunze and the flow the Tunze killed it but then it should have too but you get what you pay for.

The Tech Den Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 How many tanks are you doing and head height? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ado_84 Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 there 21 tanks (2*1*1's up to a 6*2*2.5) total of 4000l, 5 tank would have a head of 1.8 most at about 1m, i know that a resun 5000l and a pond-one 6000l do the job fine, but want just one pump for less wattage, the two combine now would be about 190w i think i have an edan pump on another system and i like it, but there biggest in only 5000lph.
