Review on Hydor Pico Evolution: Versatile Centrifugal Pump for Aquariums and Terrariums by Tina Pagan

Just received and put in the tank today and the size and performance are perfect for my Fluval EVO 13.5. Still in the water. The head rotates 180 degrees so I can easily point it anywhere. You absolutely can't beat the size or price! I use it as a pump for my reef tank and combined with the original pump that came with the tank all my water circulates well and completely. This is exactly what I needed. The other complaints were about two things: it ended up making noise (only time will tell) and a ridiculously large mount (twice the size of the pump and why it lost a star) BUT I have a simple, cheap fix for that ! Assembly required a suction cup with a hook, a long skinny tie and 1 minute. Make sure you have a PULL-THROUGH suction cup, not one that wraps the hook around the boss. Look carefully at the pictures. Just. The suction cup my wife gave me was from a craft store or maybe a "big orange," she's not sure. It had a plastic hook that I easily cut off. If you can't find it it will work, but it has a metal hook and it will be difficult for me to cut the hook without damaging the suction cup: Sysfix 2412000 - #20 suction cup with metal hook in a box of 25, colored.
