Comments: This is a perfect little pump for the money. Little work horse and great for your small water needs. Great for doing many different things with your tank. Not just for dosing.

Comments: This pump is pretty good for the price. I use it as a kalk doser set up on a timer. It doesn't give a whole lot of output, which is a good thing for dosing chemicals.

Comments: This pump seems to be doing well so far,the only downfall is it doses a lot per minute so i took a drywall anchor plugged up most of the hole ran a test for 1 min to measure the exact dose into a cup and then set my time.On a side note the first night i got these pumps running i dosed 3/4 of a gallon of alk into my tank.I set an on time and never set the off time so it ran until empty,however that was my own stupidity and not the pumps fault,also dont submerge the pump tube in water let it drip and leave a drip loop so it has to go uphill a little or it will create a siphon and mega dose.My tank is recovering i didnt lose much except a few astrea snails and my tank has about 40 sps so i was really freaking out.Overall good pump i got the tube for about 5 bucks

Comments: This is my second dosing pump. I use mine to provide a constant flow to my Calc Reactor. Keeps the what level up nicely. I have been using this set-up for 8 mo now. I would reccomend the product. Was cheaper option, than buying more exspensive pump to do the same job.

Comments: 8 years service for this price. You tell me if its worth it. Just buy a 2nd one to keep on hand. You may not realize how important this pump is,until it does quit. Keeps overflow box primed(even after a power outage).Also,you can use with timer for auto top off. The most overlooked feature,is that the pump can pull air,as well as water.So if it does loose its prime,it will get it back. Again!!((even after power outage)).

Comments: Cheaply made Chinese junk that wears out in less than a year. I use it to prime an overflow box. They are so unreliable that I bought 2 last time because I knew I would need a backup. I will be purchasing a new overflow box that does not require one of these.

"Marine Depot matched prices and delivered very quickly. The Stunner adds a good color to the tank."

"As always my experience with Marine Depot was 'overall satisfaction.' If on the phone, by video or the write-in reviews on the product I am interested in, they are always helpful. When I am in doubt of what product will help me or where to find it, Marine Depot is usually the first and last place I go to."
