Excellent!

Great Pumps! by Maitai123

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 5/20/2008 from DORAL, FL UNITED STATES

Comments: I normally use Tunze 6060 pumps for my 300 gallon reef tank. After one of my pumps stopped working I decided to go with 2 VorTech pumps with the Battery backup as I have always been nervous about power outages, especially when I am traveling, which is very often. I also am doing my best to keep my water temperature under 82 degrees at all times (without a chiller). I was running 4 Tunze pumps. The flow was fine with the Tunze pumps but the intakes would foul up with algae every 2 months or less. They had to be removed and cleaned, + with 4 pumps this was adding to the heat build up. I took a chance with the VorTech pumps and have been very please with them. They are not noisy, but you have to first be careful with the alignment. Once up and running, they are virtually silent. I really like them as the flow is very powerful and the spread is very wide, which is excellent for my corals. The only negative thing I can say is there is no way to angle them or rotate them on a pivot point. This does limit the usage and capability a bit, but the quality design, and excellent flow makes up with this one small negative. I definitely recommend them.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
