Very powerful, best for fish and aquatic animals

Bought to try and make weekly water changes more efficient. Wow, that's all I can say. It's incredibly powerful than I expected and I wouldn't recommend using it for water changes. When used in an aquarium as suggested, it will definitely create a flow. The only problem I had was connecting the hose to the outlet. This tube fits in, but not very well, and needs some jiggling and adjustment to get it to fit properly (I had to fold it to fit the hole and then try to unroll it while it was in the…

Pros
  • Includes air valve and soft hose (top filter option)
Cons
  • Clarity

Be careful with the housing

I mainly use it for the weekly water change in two large pools with connected pipes from the hardware store. It's fast and efficient, and my only easy option since there aren't any Python adapters for my specific receivers. Very strong suction even with a long hose that sometimes gets twisted. My biggest complaint is that after a month the plastic around the base started cracking, I guess due to the water pressure, and I've had to constantly fix it with super glue since then, otherwise it stays

Pros
  • Pump power 35 W
Cons
  • Very expensive

I recommend these pumps but read my entire review.

Wow! Not only does this thing work, it's also very powerful. I got this in my breeder 40 to create water movement. I chose this size (317 GPH) because it is about 8x the capacity of my tank. Based on my research, you should be changing the water in your tank 5-10 times an hour. I put it in the tank, turned it on and it started spouting water. My plants were breaking out of the substrate (some hadn't developed a good root system yet) and my fish were struggling with the strong current. 75…

Pros
  • Voltage - 120V / 60Hz
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
