This is great: Aquarium Pumps and Filters

Amazing little pump has lasted 9 months, still as good as the day I bought it, very powerful, never had a single problem. I would recommend this pump to anyone who has a 340 gallon tank

Cons
  • Matches

Super adjusted and very quiet!

I installed this setup on my 240g predator tank and it is amazing. Definitely moves water and is very quiet. Love being able to control the controller which mounts nicely in my closet with the included bracket. Very happy with the purchase and will be using these pumps for my next upgrade.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Unfashionable

Excellent pump! at Fish & Aquatic Pets

Couldn't be happier to buy this pump, super quiet, very powerful, runs on a custom 160 gallon tank, I've got it up to 1 1/4"T (that's the starting size), then each reduced to 3/4" to double the return through the center trap overflow. Return outlets are about 68" high, flow is strong and currently only on setting number 2. Only set up for a week and all is ok, will update if anything changes.

Pros
  • It's Amazing
Cons
  • Secret

Wow what an upgrade!

In 5 years on the reef this is the best pump I have ever had. I have a 240G 6ft double overflow tank. I used to stick to the Rio and/or Mag series, but I've always been annoyed at how noisy they were in my office. I recently upgraded to a new Apex controller and decided it was time to upgrade to a regulated pump and get rid of the noise pollution. in my office. This pump is literally dead. The only sound you hear is water flowing out of my return lines. I have this pump working at 60% and for…

The pump cannot withstand the pressure.

I wish I could give less than 1 star. I bought the pump in August 2017 and it worked perfectly for 2 months. I was happy with that. Then one day it started making a very loud noise even when I was driving it at low speed. I contacted CoralVue and they basically blamed my plumbing. They said the pump was designed for 1 1/4" tubing and since I was using 3/4" tubing it was my fault. Plumbing or creating a drain line in my sump (which I already have) Coralvue support didn't help at all. I would not

  • Confident

  • No
