sorry I can't answer your question but you get a free bump.
I have the Eshopps PF-800. My tank is still cycling so I don't have it on-line yet. I did some research on it and from what I've read they are reliable. I have not read anything negative about them. The only thing people have told me was get a RR tank...more easier said than done I believe the CPR is close to double the price? |

From what I have read the CPR requires an external pump to maintain the siphon and is prone to problems. The Eshopps have been recommended in other threads.

I have been using multiple eshopps for years and never once has one failed. I have lost power multiple times and never once has one failed to restart automatically.
