I just bought another 1250 for my refugium. I went for the Eheim because I have another 1250 unit that is literally 20+ years old that still performs like new. I also have 2217 of the same age, and except for the orings, they are still good as new. Eheim has always been my choice....... And they are very quiet, nearly silent in fact but of course theres always a lil somthing.

I have two in a wet dry filter for a 55 and they make no noise at all.
I am very happy with the quality of this pump.

I replaced 2 Pondmaster 750C (Mag drive 7) pumps with this unit and wish I did it years ago. It is quiter, cooler, and more powerful at 4.5 ft of head. I no longer hear my pump running and now only hear water running through my overflow tubing. The pump is in the living room about 3.5 feet from the couch and I can't hear the pump. I no longer have to turn off my pumps when watching TV. The living room has 7.1 surround sound and I now only turn off the pump if watching movies with a lot of silent, suspensful scenes. Honestly, I don't hear the pump anymore but I can hear the water in my overflow and sump so I turn the pump off to silence that noise. Great pumps and can't say enough good about them.

I bought this pump as a replacement for a Quietone 5000. The EHeim is so much quieter! And, it runs cooler. The Quietone raised the temperature in my tank several degrees.

Fast delivery and another great product from Eheim.
Using this as an external return pump for a 56g reef tank with chiller. The pump is super quiet and runs cool as I've come to expect from Eheim. Installation couldn't be easier.
This is the fourth Eheim pump I've purchased, the three smaller Eheim pumps have performed great and I expect this will prove to be a good alternative to a mag drive pump.

The pump worked right out of the box and I haven't had any problems with it. It is Not as powerful as I expected, and I had difficulty finding a flexible hose for the output that works perfectly. I think I need the next model up to pump water up 4 feet at the rate I want.
